Suffolk Family Carers

CCP

19 Mar 2021

Yesterday I proposed a motion at Suffolk County Council to create an "all unpaid carers opt-in" database administered by the respected charity #SuffolkFamilyCarers to help the #unpaidcarers of Suffolk. This would allow county to target support at those that most need it.

We literally have no idea how many such carers there are in the country/county or what their needs might be - but the estimated 1400 carers just in Woodbridge (!!!) have saved the state (eg us) £20MILLION over the last year. They need all the help they can get.

Wonderfully, Suffolk Conservatives seconded this motion, and it was passed "by general acclamation" by all of Suffolk County Council.

So pleased - because so badly needed! #LibDemsCare
