Following on from today's Health Select Committee report, a new publication from the Joseph Rowntree Foundation considers the merits of creating a 'care levy', which would see each generation paying its own care costs, resulting in a system that is fair, sustainable and easy to understand.
The Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF) has helped launch a new pilot scheme to enable asset rich but cash poor older people pay for additional support at home, which could help to make their lives easier and allow them to stay in their own homes for longer, rather than move into a care home.
A major study on the impact of devolution on the most disadvantaged people and places has shown that despite falling poverty and improving employment levels in the devolved countries, most significant progress has been down to reserved (UK) powers.
