Social Services: Badges
(asked on 13th July 2020) - View Source
Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether his Department regularly monitors the number of CARE badges that are distributed.
This question was answered on 10th August 2020
Since the Secretary of State’s announcement, around 15,000 badges have been distributed at no cost to social care providers or members of the workforce.
To increase supply, additional badges of recognition have been procured by the Government and we expect to be able to start distribution of these badges shortly. Details of how they will be distributed to people working in social care will be available in due course.
