Yesterday afternoon saw another closure of Clapham South tube station – this time from just after 2pm until the end of service.

This is unacceptable, and as such I have written today to @TfL asking them to conduct a review as to why these issues keep happening to our station.

A great route out east. You can link up with route C5 Clapham-Stockwell-Vauxhall.

[NCVO @NCVO]

Three quarters of charities can't meet demand for the public services they deliver because they aren't funded enough.

In the face of the high inflation, the issue of underfunded grants and contracts has never felt more urgent to resolve.

"Just about every service from dentistry to social care is over stretched, short staffed and clearly struggling to provide safe and timely access for everyone who needs it" says our Charity Director, @Car_Abrahams after reading @CareQualityComm's new #StateofCare report👇

[CSA @candsalliance]

Our response to the new @CQCprof #StateOfCare report (🧵): "This the worst we have ever seen. The picture painted of how social care is currently performing is unremittingly grim. Any government that has had a report like this published on its watch ought to be ashamed.

[Patients Association @PatientsAssoc]

Our response to this year's #StateofCare
We cannot allow the normalisation of the level of care this report describes, with its lazy stereotypes, hardening inequalities and uncompassionate care.

[Centre for Mental Health @CentreforMH]

Today's @CareQualityComm #StateOfCare report shows once again that while accessing care remains a fundamental problem across the board, people from racialised communities, autistic people and those with long-term conditions are less likely to get the support they need 👇

[Age UK News @AgeUKnews]

@CommunityCare The @CareQualityComm's #StateOfCare report is “without doubt the worst we have ever seen and within it, the picture painted of how social care is currently performing is unremittingly grim." @candsalliance

[Race Equality Foundation @raceequality]

Women and babies from minority #ethnic groups continue to experience higher risks around birth. Our research has shown and the people we work with have said that their healthcare is affected by racial stereotypes & racism. #StateOfCare

[Carers UK @CarersUK]

The latest @CareQualityComm report lays bare a system that is under extreme pressure, with unpaid carers left stranded.

We need Government to commit to a National Carers Strategy, and robust and sustained investment in social care. #StateOfCare

[Race Equality Foundation @raceequality]

Worrying that the latest @CareQualityComm #StateOfCare report suggests that as people of Black, Asian and minority ethnic background age, they are at reater risk of developing #LongTermConditions and their experience of health care is comparatively poorer. https://t.co/3RLDrusObH
