Congratulations to all the MSPs who now have the privilege of representing communities here in Scotland.
As the work begins we encourage every parliamentarian to consider: what society do we want to be and how can we work together to achieve it?
This is critically important for social care, which is at the heart of creating a just society that enables all of us to do the things we want to in life and to thrive.
A society where everyone who needs it has the right to good quality social care, when it’s needed. A society where investing across the social care workforce will show workers and people they support that they are valued; whilst creating jobs, supporting families, and strengthening our economy.
That vision requires time and genuine partnership with people who have support in their lives, and those who provide support in our communities. We are the experts.
This vision of a just society is possible and it is imperative that we begin working towards this now. We urge this Scottish Parliament to partner with us now to get there.
