Your help is needed! Can you help us build a new way of delivering care in our communities?


Recommended Posts

Hello! I need your help. I'm working on a project that aims to tackle the care crisis for the elderly - something that matters to everyone with parents of a certain age.


It would be great if you could help us by giving some feedback on our initial thinking. It won't take much time and your opinion would be much appreciated. All it takes is that you sign up, you will then receive a link to a test website as soon as it goes live and invited to give your feedback via a survey.


If you're interested, simply fill out the form on the link below. Thank you ever so much!

Its a link to Share care, an organisation which wants to tackle the care crisis for elderly through the creation of an army of volunteers. Nice idea- will support those who need a low level of care perhaps a friendly person checking on them, but will not be able to meet all elderly peoples needs.


We are living in a period where all forms of publicly funded care services are under threat. Health, social care, schools, mental health services services are being axed and whats left are being privatised.


If you want proper care for all we need to tackle to reasons for the underlying current crisis. We need a government which will properly fund and de-privatise services. This means getting involved in the campaigns to challenge the cuts, whether the privatisation of the NHS through the 'Sustainability and Transformation plans', your local park, your local pharmacy, library, day centre et al and voting for CORBYN in the next general election.


Our vulnerable elders needs more than volunteers- how about our unemployed graduates being trained to be PAID Elder outreach workers, what about opening up an Elder day centre or having properly trained and paid home carers.

    • I can also strongly recommend Lukasz after he completed some floorboard repairs and some complex repairs to skirting damaged through dog chews. He is responsive, punctual, reasonably priced, detail-oriented and his work is to a very high standard. 
    • Really? Yes you are probably right as I know from personal experience with Guys… as I claiming travel costs back, that no one told me I could claim! Left hand does not know what right hand is doing regarding admin..  If they charged people for wasting overstretched staff in A& E as in not urgent just might deter people from wasting precious time…. But then you need interpreters, to explain if language is a barrier and admin staff to administer..  Correct me if I am wrong but is there not a train from Denmark Hill or East Dulwich which goes to London Bridge? Would be faster than 2 buses I would have thought.    Oh, forgot about Tessa Jowell but thought you needed GP referral in which case, that would be the place to go rather than a bigger hospital. Know there is one in Beckenham and you can call and they will give you an idea as to wait time…..same I hope at TJ…assuming they answer phone.. If one really things about it…too many  people in London for example and to few hospitals…    
    • I don’t think it’s licensed for Sundays. It is licences for Fridays, but there hasn’t been anyone there on a Friday for years. So I doubt it. i think there’s a market at the Horniman on Sundays. Also pretty sure there’s one outside Herve Hill station on a Sunday.
    • I believe there is a minor injuries department at Guys, though I may have misremembered. Not very convenient for SE22 now the 40 no longer goes near. You have to get 2 buses or a train. Charging people (not sure if you mean financially or legally) would waste a lot more time, I would have thought? And  a bad bruise could be serious, depending on the cause and possibly other symptoms.
