LDSS Funding and Its Role in Supporting Care Professionals

One of the most commonly discussed topics in our sessions is LDSS funding, a vital support system that enables care providers to train and upskill their workforce without financial strain.

With LDSS funding, eligible employers can claim 60% of course costs upfront, with the remaining 40% reimbursed upon course completion. This makes it easier for care providers to invest in their teams without the burden of large upfront costs.

However, funding availability is time sensitive! Hurry – LDSS funding is only available for courses paid for and started between 1st April 2024 and 1st March 2025!
