Yesterday we gave a clear message to the Scottish Government, social care workers deserve better and their voices must be heard.

We demand the Missing Millions back.

Workers won't accept a penny less.

⚠️ TOMORROW ⚠️

Gathering at 11am outside Scottish Parliament, our members and supporters are rallying to demand that the missing £38 million from the Fair Work in Social Care budget is restored.

Everyone is welcome to attend 📢

In 2023, £38million was stolen by the Scottish Government from the budget for care work in social care.

There's been no promise of restoring the funding.
