Can you give me an example of the type of
advice you would provide to me as a member regarding, say, a stairlift?
You have probably heard of Stannah Stairlifts – a well known,
quality stairlift manufacturer. However, there are many others with
numerous options and choices. You may also wish to consider a reconditioned
stairlift, as these are considerably cheaper than buying new. We
can provide information on a number of providers and, once you have
made your choice, help with funding the purchase if required.

proceeds option. We can demonstrate that our service provides real
financial advantages for you.

If you are moving to a smaller property then we are able to advance
monies in anticipation of the sales proceeds of your existing home
to enable you to move now. If you are moving into care, then we
can advance monies to either pay for care or to purchase an immediate
care plan whilst we sell your property on your behalf.

Yes, we will tailor any facility to your exact requirements. You
will, of course, only pay interest on any money actually drawn.
