This is Care About Us – a podcast made by disabled people about the social care system and how it needs to change.
This podcast was made by Glasgow Disability Alliance, a disabled people’s organisation or DPO controlled by our 5500+ disabled members. GDA are the largest groundswell of disabled members in Europe and a leading and celebrated example of a grassroots community of identity.
Join hosts Cols Young, Community Development Co-Ordinator at GDA, and Sophie Lawson, Policy and Participation Manager at GDA.
In this podcast series they will be speaking to GDA members about what social care means to them, the state of the current system and what needs to change to properly meet disabled people’s needs.
In this episode, they talk about what social care is and how it meets or does not meet the needs of disabled people in Scotland.
