Do you receive social care in Wandsworth and want to be involved in shaping social care services?

- Act as the reading group for adult social care public information in a range of formats, including leaflets and web based information;
- Be referred to and provide feedback on a range of local adult social care strategies and policies including consultations;
- Be engaged in any other relevant adult social care projects as appropriate to ensure local users and carers voices are heard;
Achievements
The group have been involved in the following discussions and activities so far:

Who is the group for?
The group is made up of 15 local users and carers of adult social care services as well as partners and representatives of local users and carers who have experience of the local health and social care system.
Where possible, members of the group are asked to discuss issues on the agenda with any relevant groups or networks prior to attending meetings and report back to the Group as appropriate.
