Description

Why are 75% of local authority budgets consumed by social care? What steps can the government take to rein in escalating costs and meet growing demand? And how can public finance professionals ease pressures on local authorities? 



In this month’s episode, we tackle the urgent need for change in adult and children’s social care—a system that places unsustainable strain on local governments and the wellbeing of its communities alike. 



Join Dr. William Burns, CIPFA's Social Care Policy Advisor, Bernie Enright, Executive Director of Adult Social Services at Manchester City Council, and John Pearce, Corporate Director of Children and Young People’s Services at Durham County Council, as they unpack the challenges and actionable strategies for managing demand. 



Tune in for expert insights and practical solutions to one of the public sector’s most pressing issues.
