Following an announcement by the Chancellor of the Exchequer on 29 July 2024, the planned adult social care charging reforms, which were inherited from the previous government, will not be taken forward in October 2025.
This guidance applies to the charging reform implementation support funding. The guidance sets out:
- allocations of the implementation support grant for 2022 to 2023
- guidance intended to assist local authorities
The updated Charging reform guidance on supporting local preparation (chapter 23 of the care and support statutory guidance) should be read in parallel to the grant determination documents.
