Pilning & Severn Beach residents are invited to take part in the Big Conversation on Care, a national initiative launched by the Independent Commission on Adult Social Care. This is your opportunity to help shape what a future National Care Service for England could look like.

The Commission notes that councils “see the pressures on people who draw on care and support, families, and indeed your own staff” and that meaningful reform must start with listening to the public from the outset. The Big Conversation on Care provides a platform for everyone to share views, ideas, and experiences — whether you use care services, care for someone else, work in the sector, or simply want to influence how care should work in the future.

Why Your Voice Matters

The Commission highlights that adult social care has faced years of rising need, funding pressures, and stalled reform. To build a strong public mandate for change, they are asking communities across the country to get involved and help answer key questions about:

• Who care should be for
• How families should be supported
• How a future system should be funded

A Message from the Commission

Baroness Casey writes: “We want to hear from as many people as possible and councils will know best how to reach people in their communities.”
