SAPALD

We work with the Angus Health and Social Care Partnership and have representatives at every level - on the main Integrated Joint Board (IJB), the Strategic Planning Group (SPG) and the Carnoustie and Monifieth Locality Improvement Group (LIG). We continue to lobby for residential accommodation for our loved ones as whilst a building may become available, the Council, which provides funds for the partnership, has not released money for professional carers to support our people. We are planning to take this further, but need more members for a louder voice. In the meantime we carry out a number of local fundraising activities, well supported by our local communities, which allows us to host two members' parties each year - one at Halloween, and one for Valentine's Day. It was our membership of a Learning Disabilities working party, ensured the creation and availability of the opening of the Tus Nua residential respite facility in Carnoustie, and our continued pressure that has meant that..
