We all know the crisis in UK social care damages lives and the economy: it's the Treasury we must convince | Layla Moran

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

65% : Layla Moran is chair of the health and social care select committee and MP for Oxford West and Abingdon "The NHS undoubtedly saved my life, but social care helps me live it."
64% : Now what's needed is strong and sustained public and political support to guarantee their longevity and the buy-in from the Treasury.
61% : That is what a participant at a roundtable event on social care told me recently.
50% : There are economic costs resulting from the desperate situation in social care: unmet care needs hinder individuals from being able to work, study, acquire skills and participate in the economy, with all the resulting costs to the Treasury through the loss of potential tax receipts and the costs to the NHS if physical or mental health issues result.
