Direct payments (adult social care)
Help with managing payments
Businesses will administer your direct payments for you but will take a small fee that you will have to pay yourself.
In some cases, a management service can be provided to look after your funds and make payments on your behalf. For more information see payroll providers below.
Payroll providers
