Quality care - The Big Q

The Big Q

Older People demand better care

For the past year older people have been telling us how the current care system needs to change to ensure they receive good quality care. To make sure these views are heard‚ we’ve compiled them into a new report‚ ‘Fair Care‚ Fair Share‚ Fair Choice’ and shared this with all the political parties. You can read the report by clicking on the link on the right hand side of this page.

What do you think?

We would like 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.
