The Government recently launched Caring for our future: shared ambitions for care and support – an engagement with people who use care and support services, carers, local councils, care providers, and the voluntary sector about the priorities for improving care and support.

Caring for our future is an opportunity to bring together the recommendations from the Law Commission and the Commission on Funding of Care and Support with the Government’s Vision for Adult Social Care.

The engagement exercise will run until 2 December and the results from the discussions will inform a Government White Paper and a progress report on funding reform that will be published in spring 2012.
