CARE home managers from the Malvern area are invited to air their views to MPs on January 31.

The Hundred House, at Great Witley, will host "Care Talk", an opportunity for those in the industry talk about the future of caring for elderly, disabled and vulnerable.

West Midlands MEP Liz Lynne and MPs Dr Richard Taylor (Wyre Forest), Peter Luff (Mid Worcestershire) and Julie Kirkbride (Bromsgrove) will attend.

Event co-ordinator Andrew Parffrey said: "The issue of long-term care is now at the top of the Government's agenda and care home owners have this opportunity to air their concerns and needs to the key people in the county."
