Speaking at the Age UK Partner’s conference

I was delighted to earlier today speak at the Age UK Partner’s conference, which saw the publication of a number of crucial recommendations for improving care for older people, made by the Commission on Improving Dignity in Care for Older People :

I look forward to the further consideration and developments of the Commission’s recommendations over the next couple of months, in advance of the Government’s expected white paper on adult care.  This is an issue that must be tackled, and one I will continue to work on with ministers as the white paper is drawn up.
