What does Brexit mean for Shared Lives?

Brexit has been in the news for so long, and now the date when the UK leaves the European Union is very close – 31 October 2019.

There is every chance that the UK will leave without a deal, and there has been a lot of speculation about what will happen in the event of a no-deal Brexit.

The rights of EU nationals to live and work in the UK, and potential medicine shortages are just some of the issues that could affect you our members.

The Department of Health and Social Care have issued guidance for all social care providers for preparing for Brexit and on what to do in the aftermath. You can also sign up for email alerts when new and updated guidance is issued as the situation develops.
