Keep our Care Workers in work

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

Our support visit that we rely on when we need someone to talk to and help when feeling low and someone who is there when we have nobody to talk to, they may be the only person we see all week. There will be lots of vunrable people out there Who will suffer without this service.
We need to keep our support coordinators for myself and other elderly vulnerable people. I care for this petition because I have a support coordinator who visits twice a week since I have a few medical conditions. I always look forward to seeing her. Now she's getting taken away from me. If this petition wins hopefully she still gets to visit me. If it looses she and others in her job in the county or country will be out of work.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We're not sure what action you would like the Government to take to support care workers.

You could start a new petition calling for a specific action. For example, providing funding to councils to enable them to employ care workers.
