Long-term care can be the biggest financial burden after a pension, and people are being urged to consider how they will fund care.

One in four of the UK population will require some form of long-term care in their lifetime - but funding it can be an emotive, complex and expensive prospect.

Join us on with Alex Edmans, from the Saga Care Funding Advice Service, on Monday December 8th at 13:00 for a webchat providing help and advice about funding long-term care.

She will look at how to protect assets and still afford long-term care, how costs can affect inheritance plans, and what the state is currently offering.
