Compel residential care homes in England to publish their tariff of room charges
We urge the Secretary of State to use their powers under the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014, to compel residential care homes in England to publicly display an itemised tariff of fees for rooms and service charges, very similar to those displayed in hotels.

Introduce the care home fees cap for personal care costs
A care cap was due to come into force in England in October 2025. It would have meant that no one would have to pay more than £86,000 in England for their personal care. This was postponed and finally abolished by the previous and current governments. I feel strongly that it should be implemented.
Cap service charges & require publication of how they are calculated and spent
We urge the government to: 1. Cap service charges fairly, in line with existing rent controls 2. Require transparent publication of how these charges are set and used. We think this is needed to help protect tenants from unfair costs and keep housing affordable and fair.
Require providers to offer a dual fuel social tariff for disabled/low earners
Require all energy providers to offer a dual fuel social tariff for disabled or low income / benefits claimants.
Require registration and regulation of all private domiciliary carers in England
We ask the Government to require all English domiciliary carers to undergo mandatory registration, enhanced DBS checks & minimum training requirements. English private carers are not currently required to register with a regulatory body, undergo enhanced DBS checks or meet minimum training standards
Housing costs for residential care unclear
A resident is asking about whether property assets must be sold to fund residential care for a spouse. This raises concerns about the financial burden and transparency of social care costs.
