What is a Community Care Forum?

This forum is made up of people who use community care services, their carers and people who are regularly in touch with users and carers, e.g. representatives of relevant voluntary & statutory organisations. By carers, we mean people who look after a friend, relative or neighbour (not as a paid job) due to illness, age or disability.
