"Guaranteeing the right to contact in care" Never Again must we treat our loved ones in care in this way, many sadly no longer with us, many died alone, many isolated, many felt abandoned we urge all MPs to join the debate tomorrow @DanCardenMP @tracey_crouch @libdemdaisy #rfr🧵
Never again must our loved ones be isolated in their rooms, alone, #GloriasLaw #rightsforresidents
Never Again must the voices of those in care be ignored #GloriasLaw #rightsforresidents
Never Again must children and young adults in care be separated from their parents #GloriasLaw #Rightsforresidents
Never again must it be just left to "guidance not law" #GloriasLaw #rightsforresidents
Never again must those in care be denied the right to see their families at the one time in their lives when they should be together #GloriasLaw #rightsforresidents
Not all in care are older, there are many young people in care denied the right to time with their families - Never again. #GloriasLaw #rightsforresidents
Isolation has torn families apart, deterioration in those we love irreversible. Never again #GloriasLaw #rightsforresidents
As winter approaches, we must never again have this threat hanging over our loved ones in care #GloriasLaw #rightsforresidents
We know there are many amazing Care Homes who have led the way, done all they can. We know that the carers have always done all they can, and we thank them - There are some truly AMAZING care homes and providers #rightsforresidents
Thank you @RuthieHenshall for all you have done - we will get #GloriasLaw, in memory of your wonderful mum #rightsforresidents
Never again, we continue to campaign for all we have lost, for all we have loved, for all we remember #GloriasLaw #rightsforresidents
We will march again if we have to, Never again must those in any care setting be denied the right to a #CareSupporter #GloriasLaw #rightsforresidents
This is why Tomorrow's debate tabled by @DanCardenMP @tracey_crouch @libdemdaisy @LSRPlaid is so important, the above is why we must "Guarantee the right to maintain contact in care settings" we will not rest until we do - end 🧵 #GloriasLaw #rightsforresidents

Who protects some of the most vulnerable in our society? Who ensures that care homes are safe? Why does it take 5 requires improvements and horrendous #safeguarding issues to get the regulator and local authority to act. Would you want your loved one treated like this? 🧵#RFR Image
Let down by the @CareQualityComm how can you get 5 requires improvements in a row. Let down by the local authority, how can @Calderdale continue to send people to a place with such a bad record - do the lives of those in care not matter anymore? #RightsForResidents
Residents referred to by room numbers not names...as a society is this what we have become? #RightsForResidents

Thread on evictions:
Tomorrow and 83 year old lady with advanced dementia is being evicted from her care home. The place she has call home for over 5 years. She is one of four to be evicted (as far as we know) #rightsforresidents
The reasons given, from duty bound to protecting their staff who no longer feel able to support (not true, the staff are wonderful), agency staff needed for 1:1 care costing £££, untrue and observed by an ICB assessor as such, to no longer meet the family expectations. #rfr
The family do not have a contract with the provider and cannot say what expectations have not been met. The company have declined all forms of mediation and have failed to attend all meetings with the ICB and the local authority. #rfr

"I know the Minister will cite CQC guidance, but it is not strong enough, which is why so many feel that it needs to be enshrined in one form or another" Thank you @tracey_crouch for sharing not only your personal story last week, but that of your young constituent too #rfr
"We have to say Never Again. As other Members have said, there is cross-party support & we will work with the Government to put this into law. Surely the time has come to create a new legal right to maintaining contact" Thank you @libdemdaisy for your support #rightsforresidents
"We are failing vulnerable members of our society and it simply cannot be allowed to continue. We must end all unlawful visiting restrictions and stop this unnecessary suffering and neglect" Thank you so much @EstherMcVey1 for speaking at the debate last week #rightsforresidents

We have been asked, do you remember when you joined Twitter? We should never have had to join or even start up, but 2 years later we are still going. Thank you to all who have/do support us. Thread 🧵1/14 #GloriasLaw #rightsforresidents #MyTwitterAnniversary
Our first video was launched, a poem aimed at @MattHancock, the video showing what some of our loved ones were going through at the time 3/14 #GloriasLaw #rightsforresidents

Every letter one of our members receives from either their MP or directly from @GillianKeegan ends in the same way - who to contact including @CareQualityComm 🧵 1/9 #rightsforresidents
but what is the point @GillianKeegan in contacting @CareQualityComm if they cannot act on our behalf? 2/9 #rightsforresidents
Every MP that as written to Minister for Care and Mental Health has received the same letter with the same ending - recommending you speak to @CareQualityComm only they will not respond to any complaint - so who will @GillianKeegan 3/9 #rightsforresidents

Very long thread, with new guidance out, few care groups have updated their websites, from what we can see on their written guidance - mostly they are still requiring appointments, some are mentioning testing, some are very out of date. Let us know what your group is up to #rfr
First up #PorthavenCareGroup lots of talk of booking appointments - let us hope it is out of date #rfr porthaven.co.uk/visit-a-reside…
Next up @Bondcare1 - not updated since march 2021 - does not reflect well surely? #rfr
