Funds that aren't spent at the end of the year can't be used for the next year. At your annual review meeting your planner will see how your money has been spent and if you have underspent they may reduce the amount you are given for the next year. There is one exception; if a service provider gave you a service during the year, they can still be paid with those funds. You'll talk about how you managed your funds and if your supports need to be changed in your review meeting.
