URGENT: ACT NOW TO INFORM YOUR MPS ON URGENT NEED TO ADDRESS SOCIAL CARE
We’re calling on all ESCAD supporters and others to download our new briefing letter for MPs to inform them about the pressing need to address issues of social care.
Social care is a near universal service affecting 80% of the population at some stage of their life.
It is a disgrace that half of those requesting support get no help. Around 10,000 people are stuck in hospital for want of support in the community.
An estimated 10,000, largely family carers struggle with little or no support.
Care workers’ wages are rock bottom and turnover twice the national average.
Workers from abroad are being driven out by exploitation punitive measures against migrants.
