“A future where social care is financially stable, the whole workforce is valued with fair pay, and our services are recognised as essential to society.”
We are carers, workers, leaders, and families.
We are the backbone of care.
And we’re not going anywhere.
We represent a vital network serving over 1.2 million people and employing 1.59 million professionals—the invisible infrastructure behind our communities and the NHS. Together, we deliver essential care services valued at £68.1 billion.
Decades of underfunding and broken promises have pushed providers to the edge. But we are not standing by – we are standing together.
Providers Unite is a grassroots coalition uniting community care and support providers across the UK to demand urgent action and protect our sector from collapse.
