Our Services
PPL provides a range of services to help you manage all aspects of your direct payment. Whether you use the full suite of services, or only one of them, PPL will give you confidence, while still supporting your choice and control.
Everything we do has one simple aim: making direct payments easier.
We work alongside people who receive social care funding, NHS funding, or both, to help them meet their care needs in the way that works best for them.

Our approach is unique in this sector: it is person-led and tech-enabled, with an all-encompassing, wrap-around support service.
