Open Forum At Dalgairn

Last week everyone got together for our first ëOpen Forumí. This is a meeting where everyone from Dalgairn comes together as a follow on from our consultation day and the new grading system put in place by the Care Commission. It was a great opportunity for all service users and staff to bring up any topics for discussion.

The meeting was led by Chris Morris and our Centre Committee with an open agenda. Most people enjoyed participating in the forum and several service users brought up some very useful and interesting points for discussion.

Here's to 2009!
