It was great to visit @adferiad.org in Llandudno with @mabonapgwynfor.bsky.social to hear about their exciting plans to transform the former Blind Veterans Centre into a new facility providing rehabilitation and recovery services for people across north Wales.

Collaboration is at the heart of what we do. We welcomed members of @adferiad.org and @bipolaruk.bsky.social and the Lived Experience Advisory Panel (LEAP) to talk to attendees about their work with us. LEAP member, Karrina said that advising on the project has been really special.
