Our Chief Executive, Mark Hoolahan, talks about a chronic lack of investment in social care that is impacting on workers and people we support. Scottish Government is failing people in communities across Scotland. This winter social care workers need #MoreThanWarmWords. They need action!

Emma, who works at and is supported by Thistle, talks about why fair pay for workers is not just about recognising value; it’s about developing lasting relationships in which people to feel confident that their team knows them well and understands their needs. #MoreThanWarmWords.

Here, Yesim explains the difference increased pay would make to her life. Social care is undervalued, Scottish Government, it’s time to increase pay to the Real Living Wage plus 10% and reflect the value of this vital work. This winter, social care workers need #MoreThanWarmWords.
