Abstract
The social care workforce is struggling, with an estimated 44% turnover rate across the UK and numbers entering into social care are continually dwindling. According to The State of the Adult Social Care Sector and Workforce in England report (Skills for Care, 2023) there are currently 152 000 unfilled workforce posts in social care.
