Respite care can be a lifeline for disabled people and their carers, giving them new opportunities and a vital break. Without proper funding, families will suffer. The government needs to step up and prioritise care and carers in the upcoming budget.

We are proud to have staff and volunteers from over 70 different countries. We stand against all forms of hate and discrimination. Our emergency services should be able to #WorkWithoutFear. All forms of abuse against our staff and volunteers will not be tolerated ❌
For many NHS staff, the recent racist violence in this country will leave them feeling afraid and unwelcome. To those colleagues, our message is simple: you are welcome and you are valuable members of our community. Reach out for support if you need it. england.nhs.uk/supporting-ou…

We welcome the appointment of @stephenctimms, who has a deep understanding of Carer's Allowance and the many problems it causes unpaid carers. The system must be overhauled and we look forward to working with him on this. theguardian.com/politics/art…

Trigger warning - really stark, alarming findings about parent carers from @unibirmingham. Parent carers are so often forgotten, fall through the cracks between children's and adult services and are too often left without any support for them as carers(1) birmingham.ac.uk/news/2024/m…

What a relief to finally hear this!
The Labour Government believes in working in partnership with our higher and further education workforce. Great to talk to @DrJoGrady of @UCU about common concerns and the challenges we will face together.

Unpaid carers provide a vital service but many suffer financially for their sacrifice. 🔎 Our analysis finds carers are more likely to fall into poverty, and stay once there. Those who became carers unexpectedly are 2x as likely to enter poverty than the general public. (1/2)

Caring isn’t just my family's story, it is the story of millions, caring for each other, dealing with tough times, and keeping going with love. Sharing our story hasn't been easy, but it's important. It's time to bring carers' experiences into the light.
