What the petition asks

Residential care homes are closing at an unprecedented rate, hospitals are logjammed with elderly patients with nowhere to go; in the community, local authority cuts are leaving more than a million people desperately in need of more assistance in their homes.
From a 19 year old girl that started care at the age of 18 I’m begging for you not to do any more cuts Every single year we face more and more difficulties proving quality care for the elderly and disabled, do you not realise how much pressure we are under? These people have seen more than you ever will have. In 40 years time when we’re old and frail WHO WILL HELP US? Who will be our support! please think about the long term effect this will have on people!
