Welcomely, the Government has unveiled a £600 million package to help with local recruitment and retention in social care. The fund will support the social care workforce and boost capacity in social care, in turn supporting the NHS ahead of winter and through into next year. The funding for adult social care includes a £570 million workforce fund over two years, distributed to local authorities, and £30 million of funding for local authorities in the most challenged health systems. I will certainly be working with North Northamptonshire Council and our local NHS organisations, to further understand their challenges and ensure that we feel the benefit. Overall, it will help to improve recruitment and retention, boost workforce capacity and ensure a sustainable social care workforce fit for the future. It can be used flexibly based on local need, including to increase the fees given to care providers, which will enable better pay for care workers. The National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) has also launched a new £10 million per year funding programme focused on social care research. The Research Programme for Social Care will collect information on the people at the heart of care, providing the Government and the sector with clear paths on how they can improve, expand and strengthen social care for people in need of care, carers, the social care workforce and the public.
