Social care in the United Kingdom
There have a been a lot of reports about social care.  They all recommended major changes in funding and provision but very little has changed since 1990.  There have been proposals for a National Care Service like the NHS, but people who have more than  £23,250 (or £24,000 in Wales) have to pay, so people are forced to sell their houses.  The Health Foundation says that extra money - somewhere between £6.1 and £14.4 billion a year - will be needed to meet future demand in social care by 2030.
