But where are the carers? With over two thousand vacancies for care roles in Buckinghamshire, what can we do to address this issue? Care roles are undervalued by society This situation needs to change. Our Proud to work in Care campaign highlights why OUR staff actively choose to work in care. All our staff encourage others to move into the care sector and transform peoples’ lives. Caring offers opportunities to develop a rewarding career in a variety of specialist roles across the sector.
