Been waiting for 14 years #social care to be all over the news. Managed to get this letter in the Steven Masuch, let’s not lose the momentum

BBC News - Coronavirus: Social care concerns revealed in leaked letter bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…

Great concert, thank you. But, when, when, when, will anyone recognise the role social care are playing? Not just NHS. Did I miss the link with care homes? Deaths there are hidden, care workers striving against all odds without PPE, no public recognition. Leaves me weeping.

Great to see the care home sector not accepting the deflection of blame and the twisting of the truth by the PM. This is a self evident exercise of trying to divert blame before it lands on his desk, as clearly it should. Just ask residents, relatives and staff to find the truth.

Wonderful to be part of the @NAPAlivinglife awards representing Meaningful Care Matters and to see so many familiar faces and old friends! 💕 Hilary Woodhead 💚 @MikePTrain @activitiesNAPA @andytildensfc Anna Park Alive Activities Annie Stevenson & many more! Let the party begin 💃🏽🥂

Wish you could join me at this amazing insight into #thesoprano which has been developed for care homes during #lockdown - loving hearing Tom, Louise and Francesca belt out (technical term!!) Torreador!

The oven ready plan for social care remains in the freezer. Looking inside to see what’s there, it’s an uncooked rehash of past ideas being ignored. Just like those who need and provide care, who are left to struggle on with less and less.

Please RT - we think it’s urgent to provide reflective space for everyone working in the caring professions. #schwartzrounds #nhs #SocialCareCantWait

The only way to spend some time on such a sultry day in the UK in our tumultuous world is to listen to the Buena Vista Social Club (the most beautiful older musicians I know of), find some shade, sip a mojito and close your eyes…☺️

Social Care will be ‘bolstered’ no longer ‘fixed’. A long pillow placed under a broken system? Who voted for this?

Health secretary: Ambulances will go to 'life-threatening' calls during strikes but may not attend falls - Sky News. So older people are less likely to get care, food and heat now than in my living memory. Now no lifeline at all? #elderneglect apple.news/A8aAuVk_1TYeAR…

Agree - the former public toilets in my local high street have long since been a (private) dental surgery
