Care 21- reports
Commissioned by the Scottish Executive, the report "Care 21: The future of unpaid care in Scotland" was launched on 30 September 2005 by Lewis Macdonald, Deputy Minister for Health and Community Care. This study is the first of its kind in Europe and has major significance for carers in Scotland and for the future of unpaid caring.
The report reflects the views of carers, with over 5000 carers taking part in surveys and many also taking part in interviews, focus and stakeholder groups to inform the research for the report.
Twenty two recommendations have been made. These are not just aimed at the Scottish Executive but also at the UK government, NHS Scotland, local authorties and health boards, statutory and voluntary sectors and carer organisations.
Within this section, you can download the full report and appendices, together with a copy of the Scottish Executive response published in April 2006.
