Okay, so imagine you're playing with your favorite toys and you accidentally break one. You might feel sad or upset about that, right?
Well, sometimes grown-ups also need help when they're sad or upset or have trouble doing things on their own. That's where social care comes in.
In England, there's something called the social care system. It's a way for grown-ups who need help to get assistance with things like bathing, eating, or going places.
When someone needs social care, they can talk to their local council (kind of like a group of grown-ups who help make decisions for the community). The council will figure out what kind of care the person needs and help set it up for them.
Sometimes, social care can be done at home. A person might have someone come over to help them with things like cooking or cleaning.
Other times, someone might need to go to a special place where they can get help all day long. This is called a care home. People who work in care homes are trained to help with things like getting dressed or taking medicine.
Overall, social care is a way for grown-ups who need help to get the support they need to live happy and healthy lives.
