Real estateCare England: Jonathan Gardam
Care England has appointed Jonathan Gardam as senior policy officer.
Gardam joined the body, which represents independent care providers, earlier this month and has focused on developing a funding matrix for local authorities across England.
The general election and the government’s forthcoming green paper on social care will be key parts of his work stream, the organisation said.
Gardam was previously policy officer at the Association of Directors of Adult Social Services (ADASS) and has experience working with a variety of local authorities.
Care England chief executive professor Martin Green commented: “We are delighted to welcome Jonathan to the Care England team. His appointment enables Care England to strengthen our capacity and understanding of local governments.”
Director of policy Ann Mackay said: “Jonathan’s experience at ADASS and various local authorities provides a great insight into the challenges and opportunities facing providers particularly when stakes and expectations are so high. His brief will focus on funding and costs; key issues for our members.”
