New project ‘Supporting family and professional carers to provide appropriate care and support for older learning-disabled people with behaviours that challenge’ is funded by NIHR
The Equalities and Human Rights Committee have launched an inquiry into how Covid-19 has disproportionately affected the human rights of certain groups and individuals.
BASW Cymru had petitioned the Older People’s Commissioner for Wales about our deep concerns for the well-being and human rights of older people in care homes, whose voices have been effectively silenced throughout lockdown.
We will continue to press this loudly and urgently, and to build alliances in doing this, so that the dignity and human rights of all adults in our society is upheld.
