Rejected petition Pay care workers and NHS staff realistic wages. Many care staff are on min wage

Increase hourly rates for these caring people who go above and beyond to care for vulnerable people in their own homes and residential homes. Putting themselves and their own loved ones at risk. They are amongst the lowest paid employees in the country. Yet they work endlessly to keep people safe

More details

Also carers allowance should increase its currently just over £60 per week. Hardly £1 per hour for those that take over when community carers have completed their duties
