Established in July last year, the Commission on Funding of Care and Support was tasked by the Coalition Government to review the funding system for care and support in England. One year on, this independent body, chaired by Andrew Dilnot, has made a series of recommendations which, if adopted by Government, will see the way we save and pay for care radically change; in particular, drawing on any equity in our homes and taking up insurance to cover the cost of any long term care needs.
