Are we 'freaked out' by the topic of care?
What's does community have to do with caring for others? And where do we, as individuals, and 'the system' play a role? These are all questions Suzanne tackles with Emily Kenway, esteemed author of 'Who Cares: the hidden crisis of caregiving and how we solve it'. Emily takes us through some of the key themes of her book - which, through unflinching investigation, asks why we have a 'care crisis'. Suzanne asks for Emily's 'rallying cry' to decision makers influencing carer support, and together they speak about their experiences of caring for loved ones.
