A Worcestershire woman who cared for her mother for nearly nine years has called on politicians to 'fix social care'. Sue Marshall said her long fight to secure care for her mother took an 'emotional and financial toll.

大象传媒 Hereford & Worcester asked West Worcestershire's parliamentary candidates, Harriet Baldwin (Conservative), Dan Boatright-Green (Liberal Democrats) and Natalie McVey (Green).

There are three other candidates:

Kash Haroon is standing for Labour. The party says it would commit to introducing a cap on care costs of 拢86,000.

Chris Edmondson is from Reform UK. It says it would cut income tax for all frontline social care staff to zero for three years.

Seonaid Barber is a candidate for the Party Of Women. She didn't tell us what she would do to change funding, but said: 'The people who work in our NHS are brilliant. I would get rid of the ideological capture that single sex spaces and services don't matter, and that a man's feelings, he can identify to be a nurse, and look after your elderly mother, or your child that needs intimate care'.
