The Professional Deputy ServiceProtecting the financial independence of the vulnerable
The PDS is a legal and support service which assists vulnerable people to manage their finances and to live as independently as possible.
We do this in a person-centred way, which sees everyone as an individual with unique needs.
We bring professional skills and expertise to the circle of support, working closely with local support teams and families.
We support vulnerable people to manage their own finances.
We have a responsibility to bring independence into financial decision making concerning a vulnerable adult.
We do this in two ways: either as a Deputy for Property and Affairs or by Power of Attorney.
We have professional legal, social care and welfare rights knowledge as well as personal disability and family carer experience.
to manage the financial affairs of people in supported living as well as those living in their own homes, providing them with information and assistance to not only improve their own finances, but also their lives.
Many of the people we support have experienced social isolation due to their living arrangements and have had little control over their lives. By joining their support circle in relation to their finances and homes, we have made a positive impact on their quality of life.
