At the SDSS National Voice yesterday, interesting workshops and more honesty about the gap between where we are and where we need to be. As always, we won't get there without a real power shift and full accountability to disabled people and their families. Loads of great projects and more to do!

We are receiving an increase in calls from people concerned about the scale and effects of reductions in support and services. We recognise the need to balance the books, but we remain committed to supporting sustainable, effective and person centred support across Social Care.

Progress is fragile especially in the face of scarce resources, lets support each other to find a better way.
