It’s a new year but the UK is facing the same problems: falling living standards, a crumbling health service and rapidly approaching climate breakdown. We’re ready to rise to the challenges 2023 will bring, and I’m pleased to say we’ve gotten off to a strong start. Last month we published a new paper setting out how we can tackle the crisis in our social care system by recruiting and retaining more care workers. This work is also a vital piece of the puzzle in tackling the crisis in our NHS. Find out more about our work on social care here.
