About us
Acorn Continuing Healthcare is an independent specialist firm with extensive experience in NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC), supporting individuals and families across England and Wales.
We help families understand, navigate and challenge the NHS Continuing Healthcare process with clarity and confidence.
NHS Continuing Healthcare funding is not means tested and can cover the full cost of care where a person has a primary health need. However, the process is complex, and many families are left unsure whether decisions have been made correctly.
Our role is to provide clear advice and expert support, helping families achieve fair assessments and the best possible outcome.
