A Marshall Plan for Civic LifeThere is a growing movement for civic renewal, with broad political support. But one question remains unanswered: how do we fund this work…medium.com

We'd welcome your feedback as we develop the next phase of this work, culminating in a broader paper on funding architecture for civic life in the Autumn. 📩 Let us know your thoughts: www.marshallplan.org.uk/contact

The research, 'I'm Beyond Stressed', analysed thousands of conversations in online support spaces to expose a breakdown in the social care contract. The findings show how citizens are battling confusing assessments, bureaucratic hurdles and delays in support when it's needed most. ⬇️

The report sets out practical recommendations for government, AI developers and civil society to close a critical gap in the UK's epistemic security and build resilience against the next generation of information warfare. 📕 Read the report here: demos.co.uk/research/geo...

As AI becomes embedded across our information supply chain, securing these systems must become a national priority. This isn't just a technical challenge - it's a growing threat to the UK's epistemic security.

At the heart of this threat is Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) poisoning: the deliberate manipulation of online information so that AI systems retrieve and amplify false or misleading content in their responses.

Our new report, authored by Demos Fellow Carl Miller and Demos Digital's Hannah Perry and Flynn Devine, reveals new evidence that malign actors are successfully influencing the information consumed by UK AI users.

The report also sets out five practical recommendations to begin rebuilding trust - from reforming social care means testing and NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC), to improving care-related welfare systems and reviewing carer's allowance. 📕 Read the full report here: demos.co.uk/research/im-...

The findings point to more than a funding challenge. They reveal a growing breakdown in trust between citizens and the state, with too many people encountering bureaucracy and distrust when they need support most.

We identify five key themes: 1️⃣ An expectation gap between what people expect and receive 2️⃣ People feel they have to fight for support 3️⃣ Systems feel rigid and oppressive 4️⃣ The burden falls on carers and care recipients 5️⃣ Social care can be life-changing - if people can access it

Drawing on nearly 60,000 conversations in online support spaces, the report uses people's lived experiences of social care to shine a light on the wider challenges facing public services - and what it will take to rebuild the social contract.

The lesson is clear: without changing the systems of governance, funding and accountability that shape delivery, even the strongest reform agendas risk repeating the mistakes of the past. Read the paper: demos.co.uk/research/ref... #NHSReform #10YearHealthPlan #HealthPolicy
