Care system worry

I AM extremely concerned about the current state of the care system in this area and the country as a whole. It is not only failing the elderly but those with illnesses and disabilities alike.

We should no longer tolerate a system which leaves many with no support and others with poor-quality services.

A survey by the National Autistic Society found that two-thirds of adults with autism do not have the support they need and as a result a third had developed mental health problems.

Recently, Andrew Dilnot released a report on how the system can be improved.

As a local resident and a supporter of The National Autistic Society, I would like to appeal to our local MPs to bring this issue to Parliament and help make Dilnot’s suggestions a reality.

Without this, people will continue to be left to cope without the support they desperately need.
