Age UK Care in Crisis Petition

Thursday, February 2nd, 2012

Care is in crisis. Many of those who need help and support are being badly let down by a faltering  system, while others find themselves having to sell their homes in order to pay for support they need.  The Government has promised a White Paper on care reform in the Spring.  This is a crucial moment to influence the future direction of social care – possibly for a generation.

Age UK is asking you to take part in its e-petition and add your voice to the growing number calling for serious reform of services.

Your views and experiences are welcome!
