Flexible support with personal budgets & direct payments

Your care, your choice, your control

If you or your loved one receives a personal budget or direct payment, Achieve together can help you use it to create the life and support that’s right for you – at home, in your community, or as you grow more independent.

Funding that gives you freedom

A personal budget is money from your local authority (or the NHS, if it’s a Personal Health Budget) that’s allocated to meet your assessed care and support needs.

You can:

  • Choose how the money is spent
  • Get the budget paid to you directly (known as a direct payment)
  • Nominate someone you trust to manage it on your behalf
  • Use it to fund the support provider of your choice – like Achieve together

Tailored support that fits your plan and your budget

We support people who use personal budgets or direct payments to live more independently, including:

  • Daily or weekly supported living
  • Help at home or in the community
  • Respite or short-term care
  • Transitions from children to adult services
  • Housing and accommodation options

We’ll help you make the most of your funding and stay in control of your care.

5) A supported person choosing activities or planning their week

More choice. More say. More confidence.

With personal budgets, you can:

  • Pick a support provider who truly understands your needs
  • Flex the support around your lifestyle, not the other way around
  • Get involved in creating your own plan
  • Access both health and social care through integrated budgets

We’ll walk with you through the process – from exploring support options to starting care.

Let’s explore what’s possible – together

Whether you already receive a personal budget or want to understand how they work, our team can help.
