I have been approached by the parents of a young person, A, who is aged over 18 and who has received a multi-million pound personal injury settlement. This is held in trust by the Office of Care and Protection (OCP) as it was received before A had reached the age of 18. A requires 24-hour care and this is provided by the parents who gave up their employment to do this.

Each month a payment of approximately £3 000 is made from the OCP to the parents to cover the direct costs for the young person (say £500 for food clothing etc.) and to provide the parents with an income (say £2 500). In addition the OCP also reimburses the parents for other major costs on specialist equipment etc. required by A.
The parents are assisted by another relative for about 20 hours per week...
