We were delighted to welcome @SKinnock to @DimensionsUK & @Optalis in Wokingham Borough. He spoke to people who draw on care and support and their families to hear about what matters to them and how good support enables them to live how they want to. nationalcareforum.org.uk/ncf…

I was delighted to visit Loddon Court respite service @Optalis and be welcomed into Ross' home @DimensionsUK. I saw the impact that respite care & independent living can have. I was joined by @vicrayner @NCFCareForum & discussed the critical challenges facing adult social care.

Last week we joined @candsalliance and more than 60 older and disabled people, unpaid carers, and care professionals to stand up for social care. Everyone agreed: We can’t afford for social care to be ignored in the #Budget. careandsupportalliance.com/b… @hmtreasury @RachelReevesMP

Wow our amazing colleagues have only gone and done it! All three of the Yorkshire peaks conquered and a fantastic fundraising effort for @CareWorkersFund so far. If you haven’t yet sponsored our gang, & are able to, a donation to help them reach their goal would be wonderful!
We only went and did it! Our legs are jelly but we are so delighted to have taken part in such an amazing event. So happy to have done it with @NCFCareForum colleagues for the @CareWorkersFund - still time to donate! πŸ”— justgiving.com/page/national…
