Free lunchtime session: Public finance and a National Care Service for England and Wales

About this event

In January 2025, the government announced that an independent commission into adult social will be carried out as a first step to creating a national care service in England and Wales. What do we know about the government’s policy of creating a national care service? What challenges in the current adult social care system does this policy aim to address? What lessons can we learn from the Scottish Government’s policy of creating a national care service? And importantly, how will this policy affect the work of adult social care finance professionals? Join this free lunchtime session to learn the answers to these questions, and to have an informal discussion with colleagues from around the country.
