Our Virtual Wallet Community

Clive & Marilyn - Powys County Council

Powys County Council interviewed Clive, who uses Virtual Wallet to pay for a PA to support his wife Marilyn, who has dementia.

Clive says: “I find it very easy to use….the simplicity of it is the best thing…I see an invoice from the PA, I click on a couple of buttons and approve it and she gets paid.”

Listen to the full interview with Clive where he talks about his experiences of direct payments and Virtual Wallet.

Lucy & Katie - Powys County Council

Powys County Council interviewed Lucy, who talks about how she uses Virtual Wallet to manage her daughters direct payment.

Lucy previously managed a direct payment for Katie, but found it stressful. Having decided to try a direct payment a second time, Lucy describes how Katie’s PA submit their own hours and how Virtual Wallet automatically makes payments saying “I don’t have to do anything at all”. Having now used Virtual Wallet for a year, Lucy says “I would recommend Virtual Wallet to others…and have”.

Listen to the full interview with Lucy, where she talks about having a direct payment is gradually helping overcome some of the challenges that Katie has faced following the pandemic, their experiences of Virtual Wallet and the contrast to their first attempt at managing a direct payment.
