| Annotation | The Institute for Public Policy Research (ippr) and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) are working in partnership to consider how the future system of social care can be based on principles of fairness, sustainability and simplicity. The work builds on 'Expectations and aspirations: public attitudes towards social care' published before the Green Paper on social care. This briefing is based on deliberative workshops that engaged people in debate about social care. It highlights that few are yet willing to face up to the challenges around costs of care. Three principles also emerged from the workshops as essential components of any future system of social care: fairness, sustainability and simplicity. These are defined and issues are elaborated upon. Based on its research to date, the partnership is developing the concept of an innovative, online deliberative tool that will engage people further in discussion about the future of social care. It will seek to understand how people make decisions around care and how to reform the social care system so that it achieves the principles of fairness, sustainability and simplicity. Using this tool, ippr and PwC will be able to generate data to enable the development of new proposals for the future of social care. (KJ/RH). |
