Surrey Care Association (SCA) provides independent support, advice and assistance to the care and support sector, with the aim of enabling people using social care in Surrey to achieve the best possible quality of life.
SCA is a not for profit membership organisation, open to all providers of social care and support in Surrey who wish to join. Our voluntary Board of Directors are elected by our members and are actively engaged in the debate to shape the future of social care.
We aim to do this by driving positive change, promoting best practice and innovation and working collaboratively in partnership with others. We represent our members at local, regional and national levels.
Visit the SCA stand to find out more about how we can support your organisation, whether a supplier or provider of social care.
West Sussex Partners and Care (WSPiC) and the Registered Care Association (RCA) are the care associations for West and East Sussex, supporting care providers in the delivery of their services and supporting them via various projects and initiatives.

Directors of both associations are here to speak with you today about how we can represent and support you in our work; together with our project managers for the new CPD framework and Sussex Digital In Reach Team.
