1. Care4Care Vision
• Response to current care/
demographic crisis
• People (hands) are key tool of
care
• Members give care and support
to older people (neighbours)
• Build up “care pension” of
hours for own old age (or for
relatives)
• Personalised, members in
control
• Beyond altruism to self –

independent

2. In Practice
How it works Could we add age uk
• Locally driven and organised iow logo here, may be
• National “rulebook” and credit bank; map of iow and
recording of time given (ie bank something reflecting
function) national rollout
• Partnerships with local organisations
to deliver care
• Kick off with “quantitative easing”
Pilot
• Prototype and pilotting in Isle of Wight
in first half of 2012 with Age UK, Isle of
Wight (91 members, 2000 hours
already)
Rollout
• Use web to identify clusters of interest
for rollout
• “Buzz”- led spread (highly identifiable

3. Care4Care in Practice
Impact:
• 10% of the population will be
caregiving at any one time
• Supporting three times as many older
people as are currently supported by
care from the state
• Filling a gap which State is retreating
from (and demography means is too
large to fill)
• About interaction/ lower level need/
prevention/ quality of life
