Trustee Report
Platform has actively recruited a board of trustees with a wide range of business skills to support the provision by enabling it to meet the charity's objectives.
The provision a day service for 19-25 year young adults with profound and multiple learning disabilities. The aims and objectives of the provision are to promote independence through life skills and inclusion into the community; we focus our person centered planning into four main areas which we feel embraces the philosophy of our service and the needs of the young adults; activities planned for each individual varies and are specific to their individual needs. We hold a parents forum to support the families with the significant challenges they face on a daily basis.
The Trustees meet every eight weeks to review the ongoing performance, and financial position to ensure that objectives are being met and define strategy. Sub-committee's are set up when appropriate to manage individual projects.
