Will Oxfordshire council pay for home care?

Possibly. Under the Care Act 2014, Oxfordshire council has a duty to assess, free of charge, anyone who seems to need care and support. After a means test, the council may pay towards care when savings and investments total less than £23,250, depending on income; your home's value is ignored for care at home. Attendance Allowance does not depend on savings or income. Contacting Oxfordshire council.
