SKILLS for Care is focusing on supporting the #ASCWorkforceStrategy with its ‘Driving change in social care’ campaign throughout September.
The ‘Workforce Strategy for Adult Social Care’ was launched in July. The Strategy sets out a path towards creating a sustainable, skilled and motivated workforce that is capable of delivering high quality care into the future.
This September the ‘Driving change in social care’ campaign will focus on explaining and promoting the Workforce Strategy, as well as advocating for its recommendations to be adopted and applied across the sector.
Development of the Strategy involved hundreds of people and organisations from across adult social care, healthcare and education. It represents a coordinated effort to improve the recruitment, retention and training of the adult social care workforce in addition to laying the groundwork for transformational change.
This campaign will include resources and information on how you can support the implementation of the Strategy, with blogs and articles from sector experts about the Strategy’s major themes and recommendations and why they matter. It will be running across the website, social media and other comms channels throughout the month.
You can follow the campaign by visiting the ‘Driving change in social care’ campaign hub and get involved by sharing your own insights on social media by using #ASCWorkforceStrategy.
