Buletin script:

1/3 of adults receiving social care in Hampshire will have to pay an increase in charges by the end of July 2011.

The charge is to be between £26 to £38, after a new contribution based policy was approved by Hampshire county council.

The aim of the policy is to be more personal to the individual needs of the person receiving the care as the current charging system was seen to be unfair.

Each person’s income and expenditure will be taken into account and those with lower a lower income will be made to pay contribute less towards the personal fund.

The director of adult services Gill Duncan said that no one should be put in hardship as a result of the new policy.
