Abstract

In a foreword to Shaping the Future of Care Together, Prime

Minister Gordon Brown says that a care and support system

reflecting the needs of our times and meeting our rising

aspirations is achievable, but ‘only if we are prepared to rise to the challenge of radical reform’. A number of initiatives will be needed to meet the challenge of improving social care for the growing older population. Before the unveiling of the green paper, The National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) announced that it has provided £15m over a five-year period to establish the NIHR School for Social Care Research. The School’s primary aim is to conduct or commission research that will help to improve adult social care practice in England. The School is seeking ideas for research topics, outline proposals

for new studies and expert advice in developing research methods.
