Our Chief Exec Tom Stannard focuses on Health and Social Care and local authority public health and social care financing in the recently published Solace Play report. "More sustainable, long-term funding should be complemented with a governance model that empowers local decision makers to innovate, free from centrally imposed targets." Read the full report on the link below.
📢 We are proud to launch our latest report, 'Play', Solace's take on the 'state of the local nation' in England which outlines all of our key policy asks of the new Government. The report highlights our headline asks of Ministers, which are to: 1. Deliver a truly sustainable multi-year funding settlement for local government. 2. Shift more spending towards social infrastructure, with a specific focus on prevention/early intervention initiatives. 3. Address the workforce capacity and capability crisis facing the local public sector. Solace President Matt Prosser said: "We hope our suggestions help set the long-term path forward and that we begin to see the fundamental reset of the relationship between central and local government that ministers have already pledged. The ‘Play’ report is a blueprint for success, not for local government, but the local communities and people we are proud to serve." Solace Managing Director Graeme McDonald said: “As apolitical public servants with granular expertise of the implementation of policies across a place, Solace members are unique placed to ensure that the new Government can achieve the best possible outcomes for communities across the UK."
