Quality care - The Big Q

The Big Q

Debate on the future of care

Since July‚ Age Concern and Help the Aged has been talking to hundreds of older people to find out their thoughts on how the current care system can be improved for older people. We have used this information in our response to the Government’s consultation on how care can be improved.

Although the Government’s consultation is over‚ we still want to know your thoughts on care. Do you think there should be a national care system? Should care be paid for by increasing taxes or in another way? Whatever your views‚ we would like to hear them.

Meet our Ambassadors
