people in the UK are either providing care to a loved one or are likely to go through care themselves.

Intergenerational wealth planning often begins with a care event. These moments sit at the intersection of family, finances, and long-term planning; yet many navigate them without the guidance needed to make informed decisions, protect assets, or plan effectively across generations.

KareHero supports individuals and their families at this critical point, providing expert guidance and practical support when it matters most.
