Social care: Not just an issue for our grannies
This blog is about an issue which isn’t considered particularly sexy. Whenever it does make the news, it’s usually reported as something that only affects our grannies.

Successive governments over the past 20 years have pledged to tackle it and then subsequently chickened out.
