At Care Full we believe an economy that centres care will enable all our wellbeing. As such, we’ve undertaken some research and written a short report on the welfare state.
In the UK, the foundations of our social security system offer the starting point for a more ambitious model, one that actively enables us to care for ourselves and each other.
But, to deliver a system that truly supports the well-being of our population, we will need to commit to transformative change that resists the neoliberal economic status quo rather than continuing to enable it.
In this paper we explore how principles of universality and care, as well as specific short term reforms within the current system, can move us towards a hopeful welfare state.
