Getting Started

@ncfcareforum.bsky.social and our lovely members, MHA, are on our way to the #ProvidersUnite Day of Action. The unfunded employer NI rises will do real damage to care providers, their staff & the people they support. The govt must do more mitigate this.

Care about equitable healthcare access and support for people living in #carehomes then have a read at our @age-and-ageing.bsky.social #openaccess commentary doi.org/10.1093/agei... with @fawnharradhyde.bsky.social #careaboutcare

One to share across our @ncfcareforum.bsky.social folks - and our team.

We're pleased to be partnering with @comintcare.bsky.social on their 'Taking Charge' campaign featuring lots of great hints & tips on how we can save on our energy bills & help prevent wastage. Visit www.takingchargeenergy.co.uk to download resources & take a quick free course!

Fascinating start to the @nuffieldtrust.bsky.social Hospital to Home event. Sarah Reed shares key lessons from comparable countries:put your money where your policy aim is, long term plans need true long term commitment & failure to reform social care will undermine all other efforts.#hospitaltohome

Annually, the social care sector contributes £68.1 billion to the economy, and is vital part of Britain’s healthcare infrastructure – without it, there will be more strain on NHS services. To #savesocialcare from the 2025 budget impacts we need £2 billion more in funding #ProvidersUnite

“Whilst the commission makes ready, the need for urgent support for the sector continues." Read @vicrayner.bsky.social's statement in response to the announcement of an independent commission on social care www.nationalcareforum.org.uk/care-sector-... @ncfliz.bsky.social @pixelatednathan.bsky.social

Big thanks to @localgovernment.bsky.social for this joint letter. @ncfcareforum.bsky.social are one of over 100 organisations to have signed this public statement from the LGA calling for Govt to work with the sector to mitigate the pressures on councils, providers and charities.
