For heavens sake when are the UK government going to give justice to carers and the elderly, how many times do so many thousands of people have to plead to be noticed. The government are supposed to work for the people, not the people work for the government as so many thousands of carers have been doing for far too many years without enough help or fair payment,. It is said full training on how to cope with dementia should be given to all home care workers. Thousands have given up their jobs and lives to care for their relatives with dementia, and thousands who are retired and elderly themselves are devoting long and arduous hours to caring for loved ones again without fair payment or enough help. One in two carers is also at risk of stress, depression and other serious illnesses because they have to struggle without support, what the government have offered is far too little to the point of being a disgraceful insult to humane national interest.
It is imperative that everyone reads this article link below now and everyone realises not only how many people are suffering but just what do they think the future is going to hold for them as they get older if something just and reasonable is not done now before it is also too late for them and they are in the same situation as reported in this article. Please read it the years go by quicker than some think, it takes everyone to pull together on this not just sit in a state of apathy about it, and make sure any council cut backs do not unjustly fall on the vulnerable.
