@StefBenstead I question why charities are providing care at all, if it is not to set an example and be outstanding.
I completely agree #socialcare isn't adequately funded.
I also question why #charities are courting the media with stories about the supposed social care crisis, without addressing their own failings first.
LC have had no care rated outstanding in last two years, but several homes rated #CQCinadequate.
This is another one from July https://api.cqc.org.uk/public/v1/reports/5a580cb5-87bb-40f1-bc1f-715ea102e471?20220719120000

@StefBenstead I'm not sure I buy this line from Leonard Cheshire tbh.
It's not simply about LAs failing to provide real costs (altho that I don't doubt at all) but that is also about LC failing to negotiate effectively with commissioners.
It is also about them running hugely expensive housing stock and providing utterly degrading and inhumane care in some of their homes, such as this one that warehouses over 30ppl https://api.cqc.org.uk/public/v1/reports/9b831bba-6d61-4367-8f81-4ef912dad172?20220218130000

New blog post: a book review of Ian Shaw's Evangelicals and Social Action (2021) published by InterVarsity Press.
All evangelicals should read this book to discover why we care about #SocialAction, #poverty and #justice - and why #charity alone isn't enough.

Do I just give up now? Assume I'll never find a traditional publisher or agent, and get on with going down the self-publishing route?
I don't like it. It feels self-aggrandising.I am so grateful to @[email protected] for publishing #SecondClassCitizens.

Across ages & health condtions, the number of applications for #PersonalIndependencePayment has doubled in a year. Acceptance rates stay the same. Other data also shows that severely limiting illness in the working-age population has increased. #disability
