THE CARE ACT 2014

This is an extract from my Summer Term 2015 'SEN Update'

THE CARE ACT 2014

I was also fortunate enough to attend a conference at the beginning of March 2015 staged by the Council for Disabled Children, where one of the sessions was about the new Care Act 2014, which came into legal effect at the beginning of April 2015, which was presented by Steve Broach, a Barrister specialising in this area.

As I have had to do research into the new Care Act myself, I also thought it would be helpful if I were to share some things about it with you here. Again, as I know that this information may only be of interest to some people reading this update but not to others; like before, rather than setting it out in full here, I have asked my colleague, Joshua Garrod, to prepare a separate more detailed page about everything, which you can find here:  The Care Act 2014 - An Overview Of: ‘…the biggest reforms to the social care system in more than 60 years’. 

Once more, I hope that this is helpful to you.

With best wishes

Douglas
