Jersey's News · Your Voice
Islander-led motions for change. Back one, add your experience, and we'll help put it to those in power.
Jersey runs a dedicated tax to pay for long-term care. Yet islanders who need that care can still be made to fund the first £80,000 themselves, then watch a debt grow against their home, charged interest on the very support they already paid a tax for, with no legal guarantee it won't one day swallow the whole property. A bank in London couldn't do this to a customer. Our own government can. This campaign calls for a fair Long-Term Care scheme: protect the family home, stop charging interest on care, regulate the cost of care, and answer the questions no one in government has been willing to.
