Community Care

Members of the community care team edit the Community Care Law Reports and have been involved in virtually every test case in the Court of Appeal and the House of Lords relating to duties under s 17 of the Children Act 1989 and under s 21 National Assistance Act 1948. We advise in relation to community care and asylum support for persons from abroad on a daily basis.

Over the past year, we have advised extensively across the whole spectrum of community care. This has included the closure of residential care homes and hospitals, charging issues, local authority funding and grant issues, human rights and community care, disputes between social services authorities and health authorities, the formulation of local authority policy and eligibility criteria, executive arrangements and community care, Fair Access to Care Services and Fairer Charging Policies for Home Care, the registration of adult and children's homes under the Standards Act 2000 and issues arising out of the Health and Social Care Act 2001, the Carers and Disabled Children Act 2000 and the Children Leaving Care Act 2000.
