User & Carer Forums

The forums provide the opportunity for people with some shared common ground to gather, discuss issues and help influence the planning of the Community Care Services in the Dudley Borough.

The Community Care Project offers free transport to help people to attend the meetings. Forum members are offered minutes and related paperwork in their preferred format - standard form, Braille, large print, audio cassette and pictorial form.
