Charity and legal rights organisation Access Social Care are fighting a landmark freedom of information legal case against three government departments to ensure government accountability and adequate funding for social care.
Disclosure of the information requested will allow specialist social care organisations to collaborate with central government to support the improvement of long-term decision making on social care funding.
Access Social Care has campaigned for 3 years for the UK government to disclose how it funds social care, believing that transparency is essential to create a system that works for everyone. Despite the Information Commissioner’s support for sharing this information, the government continues to withhold it.
Fast forward and Baroness Casey has been appointed to lead an independent commission aimed at rebuilding the social care system. Access Social Care is gathering evidence for this vital commission – and want your help to demonstrate public opinion.
