Between now and April 2027, The Big Conversation will give people across England the opportunity to say what they want and expect from a future National Care Service, including on the tough questions on who it should support, what families should reasonably be expected to do, and how the country should pay for care in a fair and sustainable way.

The launch follows warnings from Baroness Casey that the adult social care system is “broken”, and that previous attempts to reform social care have too often failed because they have tried to resolve fundamental questions without first building public understanding and consent.

💙 * Happy Father's Day * 💙

Celebrating today, all the amazing Dad's, Grandad's and Great Grandad's we have the pleasure of knowing and caring for at Bertie and Bells.

And, taking a quiet moment to remember my Dad today too; reflecting on his wisdom, guidance and strength.

Giving thanks to all the Father's figures out there, and wishing everyone a wonderful Sunday,

Whilst Clients are in our Care, we do everything we possibly can for them.

But, sometimes there's a limit.

Dear Jeni was taken to hospital in March this year, and last we heard, was being moved to residential care.

Jeni's Stepson messaged this week, to say she'd sadly passed away 😢

Hearing someone's life journey has ended is always sad, but, it's lovely that families keep in touch. And, comments like these warm our hearts, and affirm we're darn good at what we do.

It's a real pleasure to care.

So proud of my Team 😊

I hope you're spending time with family, enjoying the everso slightly warmer days, and cherishing the new beginnings of Springtime. Oh, and eating lots of chocolate of course !..

It's Mother's Day !..

Whilst a celebration for many, it can also be a tricky day. Thinking of all..

❤️ Mum's to be
❤️ new Mum's
❤️ those desperate to be a Mum
❤️ those Mum's with broken hearts
❤️ Mum's of fur babies
❤️ those that don't have a relationship with their Mum
❤️ Mum's that adopted the role
❤️ single Mum's
❤️ those that have chosen not to be a Mum
❤️ those that don't have their Mum any longer

Thanks to The Mum's on my Team that are keeping the wheels turning for Bertie and Bells Home Care today..
