During the pandemic there has been a huge increase in the number of people providing unpaid care to a friend or relative and a sharp reduction in accessible support services. This week’s Activity Survey Report from ADASS, shows that two thirds of their Directors have reported an increase in support requests from Carers who have experienced a breakdown or illness that may have resulted from a lack of social care support. You can read more in this article from The Guardian www.theguardian.com/society/2021/jun/16/adult-social-care-services-support or download the report from www.adass.org.uk/adass-activity-survey-report-2021-1. ...
