So many heartbroken comments about Pat in #BBCPanorama #CrisisInCare reality is with already 1million ppl over 65 without children rising to 2 million by 2030 + smaller families & more families living at distance, there are already thousands of Pats 1/2

In 2017 for the first time more older ppl needed care than had family able to provide it. That gap widens every year #CrisisInCare #BBCPanorama

92% of all unpaid care is provided by family, generally if families can provide care & support, they do #crisisincare

The demographic shift means there are going be far more Pats in the future. By 2030 2 million ppl over 65 will not have adult children & families are smaller so fewer nieces/nephews #BBCPanorama #CrisisinCare

What #Panorama #Crisisincare showed so starkly was that without family support system would collapse within 24 hours but our demographics show that families are getting smaller. Means not just fewer adult children but fewer nieces/nephews too plus half of all ppl 75+ live alone
