SOCIAL GUARANTEE

The Social Guarantee is about sharing responsibility for making sure everyone has access to life's essentials. It offers a clear vision for the medium and long term, and a set of manageable steps for the short term... Our new series, the Social Guarantee Discussion Papers will explore different concepts within the Social Guarantee in detail. Our aim is to stimulate discussion and debate around the aims and principles of a system designed around meeting people's needs... The Social Guarantee enshrines every person's right to life's essentials: education, health and social care, a decent home, childcare, nutritious food, clean air and water, energy, transport and access to the internet. For this to happen, we need universal basic services and a fair living income.
