SAICP was formed in June 2006 to speak with authority about concerns and issues including funding with Suffolk County Council Adult and Community Services (ACS) and CQC (formerly CSCI). 

SAICP acts as an umbrella organisation with the chairpersons of other support organisations in Suffolk sitting on SAICP's committee.  Membership covers domiciliary, voluntary, residential and nursing providers.  All Suffolk independent and voluntary social care sector Care Providers are most welcome to join.  For more information contact Hilary Gibbs of Stowcare on 01449 675426 or contact a member of the committee - download the file below.
