BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, Jeremy Hunt talks social care

Jeremy Hunt on social care, the success of Lush and Edinburgh trams.

Jeremy Hunt discusses integrating health and social care. Why have sales of wool increased? We highlight the cost of rail tickets. How are Lush making a profit in the recession?

Secretary of State for Health, Jeremy Hunt will today address directors of social services about one of the toughest problems we face in this country. How do we provide and pay for dignified care to an aging population.
