| Annotation | This publication is the third in a series of LGA papers on the future of social care and support. The first paper, 'Our lives, our choices', set out their initial thoughts and explored how a simplified, locally-based system of care and support could address a number of the challenges which make the current system unsustainable. The second paper, 'Facing facts and tomorrow's reality today: the cost of care', looked in more detail at the current system of adult care funding, the current and future costs of care and support, and ways in which councils, working with partners, are doing their best to make the most of available resources. In advance of the government's Green Paper on care and support reform, 'A fairer future', sets out the LGA's proposals for what a reformed system of adult social care and support should look like. The publication explores these principles: a clear system of care and support; a fair framework for funding care and support; a fair way to access care and support; and a fair minimum standard of support available to all who need it; and a fair approach to supporting individuals with a focus on local authorities leading change.
