Verbatim
“Shared Lives shows what good social care looks like when it is built on relationships, trust and shared everyday life. This reception was an important national recognition of the skill, compassion and commitment Shared Lives carers bring to their role, and of the difference this kind of support makes to people's lives.”
“£500m to fund a FPA is a start, but realism is required [...] This new funding runs the risk of being thinly spread and going largely unnoticed.”
“This report shows clearly that Shared Lives is a model that works. Even under sustained pressure across adult social care, it has proven its ability to grow, adapt and deliver high-quality, relationship-based support in communities across the UK.”
“Whilst we welcome some of the measures in the Budget for the NHS and neighbourhood health, we are disappointed that there was no additional funding in the budget for social care.”
