Unlimited Potential Laura Kuenssberg Laura Kuenssberg thanks for your tenacity on this issue - bringing it up whenever a relevant minister is on. There’s a tricky but doable balance to strike across useful short term action & long term reform (beyond who pays). Key is not to be frozen into inaction socialcarefuture.org.uk/noticeboard/mi…

Our work on a new narrative has been inspired by others including Joseph Rowntree Foundation. Back in 2018, Julia Unwin wrote a great post for us about her conversion to framing 'When I first heard about framing I heard spin.'

Today #NCASC24 welcomes Stephen Kinnock Hope for the future of social care is tempered by real worry about impact of the NI increase on people’s lives if not mitigated. We hope the minister will signal strong support for earlier action & the proposals here local.gov.uk/publications/e… 1/

Stephen Kinnock we already have a vision for social care that is used by much of the sector let's now reinveny the wheel. @ncasc24 #socialcarefuture

A core question for our movement is how we move on from the legacy social care system that hasn’t changed much in decades apart from who runs it. Members of #socialcarefuture are focussed on what inhibits/supports the growth of better alternatives to replace the legacy system over time

We need to shift from the idea that the problem for social care is how to make the legacy system sustainable. It isn’t & can’t be. The challenge is rather how to evolve a system that is sustainable because it does the right things in the right ways

Thanks to the great group who joined the “Plumbing and Wiring” workshop at Local Government Association (LGA) yesterday. Advocates for social care are playing a weak hand so it’s important we play it skilfully including finding important areas we can take joint action to improve.

At Birmingham University yesterday a group came together focussed on ensuring that the proposed national care standards start from what matters to people who draw on social care. We invite contributions from others with this goal Thread👇 1/
