Equality Issues/Advocacy
We deal with individual and group issues reported to us to help promote equality across all areas. We also help support individuals with any issues they have to ensure their voices are heard.
Self-Directed Support
We provide information to people wanting to know about self-directed support and help to people who have issues or questions regarding their care.
Community Access
