THE Labour Party needs to launch a fully costed plan for a new national care service, the National Pensioners Convention (NPC) said today.
NPC deputy general secretary Dot Gibson told those gathered at the TUC London, East and South East Pensioners’ Network annual seminar to demand “a care system free at the point of delivery to all those in need.”
But she added: “There’s no point in continually exposing the crisis in care and simply reporting examples of the effects of this on individuals and their families as well as care workers.
