On Friday 16th January our MP Andrew Snowden and Caroline chaired a meeting for Lancashire social care providers at Fylde RFC. It was an incredibly useful meeting and we were joined by Charlotte Nuttall from Ward Hadaway Law Firm. Charlotte clearly articulated the impact that the Employment Rights Bill will have on employers and social care providers. Mr Snowden will now use the discussion to form the basis of Parliamentary questions to highlight the challenges that the sector is facing.
