@GdVikki Contact them! They might be really nice and organised (🤞) and know that 15 minutes gives you time for a loo break and a coffee but better safe than sorry..

Unpaid carers provide a vital service but many suffer financially for their sacrifice.

🔎 Our analysis finds carers are more likely to fall into poverty, and stay once there.

Those who became carers unexpectedly are 2x as likely to enter poverty than the general public.

(1/2)

@laurence903 @ursulaamason @ni_gpecs @rcgp_ni Good! Trouble is that none of the innovations have been accepted into the finance lines so they are optional extras and the first to go. I think what’s needed is a baseline review….!

[Christine Collins MBE @christinezoo]

@laurence903 @ursulaamason @ni_gpecs @rcgp_ni Absolute madness: undoing positive change, retreating back to a failed model ..Why? Answer is not “no money” it’s addiction to “The Old Ways” which are embedded into the spending system..
