Millions provide unpaid care for loved ones, often at the cost of their own wellbeing. Ahead of the 15 October Westminster Hall debate, we’re calling for proper financial support, respite and recognition for carers. Caring for others should never mean being forgotten yourself. #UnpaidCarers

The Government’s Immigration and Asylum Bill could have serious consequences for people seeking safety in the UK. These are five changes we believe deserve closer attention, and why fairness, dignity, and human rights must remain at the heart of our asylum system. #RefugeeRights #HumanRights

What if we stopped talking about social care as a burden? Care is something a wealthy country should be proud to provide. It gives people dignity and quality of life, and the mostly women who provide it (both paid and unpaid), deserve proper recognition. Andy Burnham: what's your plan?

🚨 SEND children need better support, not fewer legal rights. EHCPs provide vital legal protections. Government proposals could restrict them to children with “complex needs”, leaving others reliant on school support plans. Reform SEND — don’t remove rights. #SEND #Equality
