How to Talk about Care in the UK: A framing toolkit

How to Talk about Care in the UK: A framing toolkit | UK social care and health policy | Scoop.it

This is because the care they provide remains largely taken for granted and is not properly supported by governments and wider society.

In this toolkit you will find some helpful recommendations and tools that can be used flexibly by anyone who wants to talk more effectively about the value of all care, paid and unpaid, to the UK general public. Oxfam tool kit
