Thank you to @Channel4News for this important report, filmed with people we support in Kent. @Hftonline and @CareEngland's latest #SectorPulseCheck report is not just statistics - this financial crisis has a real-life impact on people who draw on social care services.
Crisis in adult social care: The charities having to turn away those needing care channel4.com/news/crisis-in…
Today's #SectorPulseCheck from @CareEngland and @Hftonline reveals the devastating fallout from chronic underfunding by Government of social care. 🧵(1/5)
As @k_runswick_cole said, #CovidInquiryUK must hear directly from people with learning disabilities… people want to be heard and said repeatedly, ‘this must never happen again’.”🔽 And @BhattMurphy instructed the KC for @DisRightsUK @DisabilityWales @disabilityni @InclusionScot
The inquiry into the pandemic has highlighted how little priority the government afforded people with disabilities. Their voices need to be heard as this investigation continues, says @Saba_Salman communitylivingmagazine.com/far-down-the-c… #CovidInquiry
@Open_Future Love your content, just want to share: Walking in front of the disabled person CAN BE proper support! I have sensory issues re touch and severe anxiety, one job my support staff have is creating a barrier between me and other people - often this means walking in front of me :)
