Give Care Workers A Raise! - Hammersmith and Fulham Liberal Democrats

Introduce a new Carer's Minimum Wage

Millions of elderly and vulnerable people across the country are struggling to get the care they need and deserve.

Our care homes are collapsing under the weight of years of broken Conservative promises. And this social care crisis is having a devastating impact on the NHS right here at Charing Cross and Chelsea & Westminster Hospitals.

Thousands of people are stranded in hospital beds because there simply aren’t enough care workers to look after them at home or in a care home.

The first step to fixing this mess is to pay those working in social care more, to prevent the exodus of workers to supermarkets and other better paid jobs.

The Lib Dem plan to introduce a Carers’ Minimum Wage would see social care workers paid at least £2 an hour more than the current minimum wage, bringing their pay up to at least £11.50 an hour today - and £12.42 from this April.
