United for Change: LCS Portsmouth Supports Providers Unite Day of Action
posted 16th September 2025
A Pivotal Moment for Social Care
On 25th February 2025, social care reached a critical turning point. Thousands of care providers, care recipients, families, and advocates joined together across the country, with a central gathering in Westminster, for the Providers Unite Day of Action.
Why We Stand Together
As a leading home care provider, LCS Portsmouth proudly stands with Providers Unite to champion the message that social care is an essential pillar of society. It must be properly valued, funded, and supported. The Providers Unite Picnic is not just a date—it is a call to recognise, affirm, and protect the role of social care.
The Urgent Challenges
Millions rely on care services daily, yet the sector continues to face underfunding and neglect. Successive governments have failed to deliver the investment needed to meet growing demand, leaving vulnerable people and dedicated professionals at risk.
What We See First-Hand
At LCS Portsmouth, we witness the life-changing impact of home care, the dedication of care workers, and the daily challenges providers face due to systemic underfunding. This is why we proudly support the #ValueSocialCare campaign.
Our Call to Government
We urge the government to:
- Recognise and Respect Social Care as a vital lifeline for dignity and independence.
- Ensure Fair Pay for the 1.6 million professionals who are the backbone of our communities.
- Secure Sustainable Funding to protect access to safe, high-quality care now and for the future.
Standing for Real Change
LCS Portsmouth joins care workers, providers, and families in demanding meaningful reform. Now is the time to invest in community care, protect lives, and build a fairer system.
