About this Event A positive vision for inclusive communities created by disabled people and many other experts in social care is possible. COVID-19 has demonstrated the power of local neighbourhoods and the vital importance of ensuring people get personalised support - and avoid congregated institutional care whenever possible. However social care - for children and adults - is still stuck in the past.
