Labour's Social Care Reforms

Labour's leader, Andy Burnham, outlined plans for a major overhaul of adult social care, proposing the creation of a national care service based on NHS principles. The reform aims to make care free at the point of use, funded through public spending and savings from scrapping the state pension triple lock, with an estimated cost of around £18 billion annually. The plan would protect individuals' assets from long-term care costs and involve improvements in care worker pay and staffing. A detailed proposal is expected in an independent report in 2027, with the new service potentially introduced in the next Parliament.
