Labour’s proposals for fair pay for social care workers are welcome but will they fund it?
Tory government is not funding the rise in NMW properly & many councils are paying fee rates that do not cover the 9.8% rise this year.

“The government’s talking about opening up career pathways for care workers. Lovely. But let’s look at unpaid travel time. Let’s look at that basic hourly rate. And let’s look at insecure contracts”.
100% with you all. We’ll keep pushing.
