Baroness Blake of Leeds (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 22 July 2025

Debate

Independent Commission on Adult Social Care

Contribution

The noble Baroness, Lady Casey, is working towards setting up a national care service that can work alongside the National Health Service. The noble Lord raises critical points. Given that so many people live with frailty and need in the community, it is essential that not only the NHS and social care but the voluntary sector and the wider community are involved. We have seen incredible benefits for our most vulnerable in areas that have managed this successfully. There is an enormous amount to do, as the noble Lord suggests, but we are up for the job.
