WELCOME

Welcome

to the annual Pulborough Village Directory.

One of a series of Village Directories in Sussex.

This directory is delivered free of charge to every home and business in Pulborough and the surrounding area.

It contains details of the local clubs, societies, churches etc. In fact all the information that is useful to residents. Village Directories keep residents informed, shopping locally and using local services. Our aim is to support the community and the directory devotes 50% of its content free of charge to useful local information.

This publication is made entirely possible by local trades and services who advertise.

Please make every effort to support them and to mention that you saw the advert in The Pulborough Village Directory.

We now have a new website which has all the listings and advertisers contained in this edition.

The website also has similar listings of 15 other West Sussex villages so if you need any local contact details for community groups in West Sussex this website is a good place to start.

It is designed to also work on your smart phone or tablet so please have a look and make it one of your ‘favourites’ so you can easily access the contact details you need whether at home or on the move.

We hope you find the Directory useful and that you keep it to hand for the whole year until the next one arrives.

The Village Directory Team www.villagedirectories.com

If you are part of a local community group that doesn’t appear in this Directory please get in touch to organise a free listing in the Directory and also on our website.

Our first work party was held at Highdown Hill near Worthing after the great storm of 1987. We have grown in stature and have a core group of volunteers but would like to recruit more to help. We mainly carry out work on alternate Sundays with the occasional Saturday and also weekend tasks, once or twice a year. Work carried out goes towards their 50 hour volunteer card over a year (but not compulsory) which entitles the holder to free entry to National Trust properties and discounts in their shops and restaurants. We’ve had students from Plumpton and various other colleges and those working towards a Duke of Edinburgh Award. We are a friendly bunch and provide any new recruits with a welcoming atmosphere and of course tea and biscuits!

We also have many social events. Find us on facebook, visit our website or contact us for more information.

Concerned about your home being sold to fund your future care fees?

The Issue

You probably own your home as joint tenants if you are a couple and solely if you are single.

For couples this means you own it wholly, jointly and severally. Ultimately therefore you do not own it 50:50 as you might have assumed. You actually own all of it together and when one partner dies the surviving partner owns it solely and absolutely.

It is sole and absolute ownership that enables a whole property to be taken into consideration as an asset by the local authority and puts the property in danger of needing to be sold to fund care.

The Reality Today

The care Act 2014 introduced in April 2015 allows local authorities to assess your assets to determine if you need to pay for your own care under the new charges and assessment of resources regulations.

Currently if you have assets above £23,250, you are on your own and require care, you will probably have to pay for it all - currently averaging around £1,000 per week.

Savings, cash and income would be used first and then your property would need to be taken into consideration. You would be expected to pay for all of your care until such time as your assets were depleted to below the £23,250 threshold.

You would then pay for a proportion of your care until your assets were below £14,250 - at which point all your future care would be paid for after any relevant income was taken into account.

The Solution

For couples, simply by changing the way you own your property well in advance of any care considerations i.e. from joint tenants to tenants in common and by setting up two property Trusts either immediately or within a properly structured Will at the same time in most cases, protect the integrity of your home should you ever require care in the future, so long as avoiding care fees was not a primary motivating reason behind the implementation of the strategy - i.e. you should be looking to protect your half of your property should your spouse remarry after your death, or you should be looking to ensure that your children would not lose 50% of their inheritance should they be made bankrupt or divorce or for example you should be looking to prevent a generational inheritance tax burden in the future. These are all sound reasons for implementing this strategy which in themselves are not deliberate deprivation of assets, but the implementation of which protects the integrity of the property.
