"England needs a new care and support system" - says Government

13/09/2008

"The care and support system needs to change - have your say"

"England has a care and support system that aims to help people to be independent, active and healthy throughout their lives. Because we are all living longer and have changing expectations, this system needs to change.

To inform the discussion about how the system will change, we want to hear what you have to say about care and support in the future. This is your opportunity to tell us about the principles behind a new care and support system, how we can share the responsibility for care and support and how we can set clear and fair rules about funding. Your views are important and will be listened to and used to inform proposals for how the system can change."
