Provide emergency funding to local authorities to improve social care

Closed 226 signatures

What the petition asks

Provide emergency funding to local authorities to improve social care immediately, and ensure provision of social care does not get worse. This will allow time to take the necessary actions to improve social care in the longer term.
I feel I cannot stand by and not do something about what appears to be a crisis in social care. It should be the right of any citizen who needs care to have that care when needed.

I am a proud citizen of this country and I feel I have to do something .
I think you should feel the same. I feel it is my responsibility and the Government's responsibility to ensure citizens have the appropriate care they need.

The wellbeing and care of your citizens should be the top priority of a caring government.
