An inquiry group formed as part of the social care future report and called, as the ‘Whose Social Care is it Anyway?’ have released their first findings.
The powerful thing about this inquiry is that is has been led by, people who draw on social care to lead their lives or who support loved ones to do so. Participants of the group got tired of being left out of the discussions about reform or being the ‘tick box service-user’ so took matters into our own hands and started the Whose Social Care is it Anyway? Inquiry.
The group heard from over 500 people, and five key changes have been identified:
- Communities where everyone belongs
- Living in the place we call home
- Leading the lives we want to live
- More resources, better used
- Sharing power as equals
