Budgets

The personalised ‘Taking the First Steps’ account is for people to record what they have spent their test budget on and what their outcomes have been.

The test budgets for recovery tool helps the person in recovery decide which of the recovery outcomes they want to focus on and to think through how they might use their budget to do this. It records progress made in spending the budget. It contains an invoice designed to ensure that the payment of the test budget will not impact on benefits.
