It's time for #BetterPay4SocialCare
We are supporting the #BetterPay4SocialCare campaign, urging the government to increase funding to local authorities so that social care providers can pay workers what they deserve - a minimum of the real living wage.
The campaign is running an Action Week from September 6th to 10th. Join us in showing your support by signing the petition and contacting your local MP to call for change.
Here's how you can help...
Proud to present SeptemberFest!
Throughout the pandemic all our team members have done a phenomenal job, whether this has been in direct care delivery, supporting behind the scenes or adapting to working from home or in different ways.
We want to take the opportunity to say ‘thank you’ and find a way to celebrate the significant achievements and contribution people have made to both the charity and the people we support.
Double vaccinations in care homes
During the past month a number of changes have been implemented as part of the roadmap to recovery across the UK and we continue to review and adjust the ways of working following the changes to government guidance and laws related to Covid-19.
The most recent change has been around the requirement that from 11th November 2021 anyone entering or working in a care home setting must be double vaccinated, subject to some very clear exemptions.
