ar￿ why we do it. We've lister*d lo our membets and other peopk who use our services, as well as our staff,
V￿UnteerS and partners. The result was a rebrand and ￿￿¥ websrte. Our monthty members, meetings have
continued throughout the year, giving members a reguL4r scheduled opportunity to raise issues about our own
Servi￿$, m*e suggestions and discuss other general corKems about the care and support they receive. We
