Annotation | Any new settlement on long-term care and support must address the apportionment of responsibility for its delivery as well as its funding. With the state's capacity limited and family input likely to decline, the wider community must expect to play a growing role. David Brindle of The Guardian argues that this offers an opportunity to end social care's marginalisation. Different sorts of social support and social capital - for example timebanking - are suggested. (RH). |
