When Jordan Conroy’s dad unexpectedly passed away in 2020, Jordan found himself struggling financially. A care worker for people with learning disabilities, grindingly low pay had left him without any savings.
“I read something about the average funeral being between £3,000 to £4,000 and neither my sisters or I had that sort of money,” he said. “My Dad had no savings or life insurance.”
Jordan works for a social care charity, Community Integrated Care, which was able to offer help from a wellbeing fund.
