A Meeting of Two Halves
At the end of October our Wales team decided to have a Fancy Dress theme and enjoy a slightly more informal event. However, the meeting really became one of two halves because attending the meeting was Mandy Williams, the inspector for our services in Wales.
During this first section Becky Steen (Head of Service for Wales) discussed participation and involvement and everyone in the Group chatted about how they as individuals made decisions and actively participate in the decision making process within the family setting that is Shared Lives. This was a lively and very interactive group discussion.
During the second part of the meeting the fancy dress costumes came into their own and the team ran a craft session where service users and team members made Halloween spiders and pumpkins.
