📢 Goodbye📢

After careful consideration, BCOP is stepping away from Twitter. You can still stay connected with us on Bluesky (@bcop-birmingham.bsky.social) & other channels!
We look forward to continuing the conversation💙

Tomorrow, 780,000 #socialcare staff will get a pay rise to bring them up to the new level of the minimum wage. That’s great news for them but also a marker of how poorly paid they were before. And it masks other pay-related issues showing the weakness of the sector. Thread ⬇️

We're excited to announce that our 2025 State of Ageing report is now available!

This year’s report paints a picture of the older population in England, using a variety of national data sources, and shows that quite simply, where you are born determines how long you live and how well you age.

The introduction of new pager technology into #RobertHarveyHouse means residents & staff found the environment quieter and more peaceful. More restful sleep and quiet mealtimes enhanced overall wellbeing.

The #King'sFund report on #adultsocialcare shows 23/24 was the first since 15/16 where local authorities spent more on social care. They increased the number of people being supported due to significant increase in local authority spending power.

Who doesn't love a pancake?
Our chefs at Robert Harvey house were hard at work last week making pancakes for us to celebrate Shrove Tuesday in style.

We'd like to share this lovely testimonial.
"My mother has been in #NevilleWilliamsHouse for 3 weeks now, she is very poorly and was transferred from hospital.
I cannot praise them enough and my only regret is that we didn't find this home sooner"
