Social care wage crisis

ALMOST a third of social care workers say they can no longer afford to live on their salaries. 

A shock poll lays bare the impact of the cost of living crisis on the sector, with one in seven carers having to skip at least one meal a day.

The YouGov survey of 1,000 carers revealed 29% report being no longer able to live on what they earn, which, in many cases, is the minimum wage.

The Mirror has launched the Fair Care for All campaign to demand proper pay and training.

The damning poll shows one in 12 carers have stopped driving to see patients due to soaring fuel prices.
