24th July (24/7) #The247grid is celebrating the impact it is making. Seeing how the same funding can be spent differently can open up all sorts of possibilities. As skills increase, support is where the person wants it, people start living the lives they choose #coproduction

Absolutely 😀 We'll never withhold our care, but we can refuse to be involved in election propaganda and tokenistic promises for our vote. It's possible that 1 in 5 voters have an unpaid carer role carersuk.org/report2023 So why on earth are we accepting this situation?

No one from government could be bothered to turn up to #Newsnight Just sent a meaningless statement That’s how much government values family carers. Just remember that when they want a gurning photo op with you and your disabled loved one to stick on their general election leaflets

£162 billion saved to the treasury last year alone because of unpaid carer labour. But parent carers aren’t seen for the people they are or for the economic value they provide.#Newsnight

@vicderbyshire It's crazy. Millions of unpaid carers have to earn to keep a roof over their head Working full time but still caring 5pm-8am , 7 days (105hrs) a week with no sleep How dare the government save £billions exploiting unpaid carers and begrudge offering a non means tested allowance

#Newsnight special - unpaid carers say they’re being forced to pay back overpayments in Carers’ Allowance One woman tells us she’s been told she owes £20,000 The NAO estimates a £20k debt will take 34 yrs to be repaid

@NottsCC @TLAP1 @socfuture @CommCats I enjoyed reading this summary local account review. What would be really helpful for those working to coproduce the Council's social care offer for #learningdisabilities going forward, would be a breakdown of how the £85,362(£,000) was spent and ask what could we do differently

@SibthorpKate @RachelMason247 @juestanny I'd say you then get into whats the DP being used for, if the thing is agreed in care plan and doesnt fall under these exemptions, its the cost of meeting the outcome, and surely thats the full cost including VAT

Is VAT relief for disabled people a solution Not if it can't be used for unregulated services The rules are not keeping up with the diverse social care market place. When services are purchased to deliver the local authority's careplan, are not regulated gov.uk/government/pub…

The issue of VAT on day opportunities and other non regulated care services is causing unfair financial hardship for #Directpayment holders across UK The VAT people pay on services they buy to meet their careplan outcomes must obviously then be #DRE a disability related expense
