Hello, my name is Victoria and I am a member here at Swansea People First
I have been involved in lots of things recently including taking part in the ‘Leadership Skills' course in Fforestfach and a visit to Llanelli for tor the Learning Disability Implementation Advisory Group (LDIAG) in March with Lynn Coleman.
I really enjoyed myself and met some old friends
Professor David Felce told us about the Action Plan for our services
which he has sent to the Welsh Assembly but they have said No to many of the things we wanted.
(you can see our proposed action plan HERE
In our own group discussion I said that it felt good to be independent in my own house and someone else that it had given them self confidence and self belief. We would not want to lose this.
Myself and Lucy gave feedback to the whole group we gave 3 main points that we know we need to fight for. At the end I asked Prof Felce what will become of the Day Services and our choices if we no longer had an Annual Review or Care Plan.
He did not know but said it is worth fighting for. We all agreed with him.
I learned a lot from the day and hope to represent Swansea People First again like this in the future.
