Protected Characteristics: A Balanced View
Manage episode 426610741 series 3529231
If you’ve read any of Luke's blogs, you will know that he is unsure about making care experience a protected characteristic.
This view is shared by many, and people have asked him to share his perspective since the campaign began because they are unsure too. The main reasons for concern include the lack of evidence to suggest this will have an impact, insufficient consultation with care-experienced people about making it a protected characteristic (that equates to the volume of people this will impact), and uncertainty about the next steps once it’s established as a protected characteristic.
Karylle and Luke got together to discuss this topic openly and honestly on our podcast, and we hope more people will come forward and share their concerns publicly too.
