General Meeting: End of Year Hot Topic Round-Up and C&SW Annual General meeting

This GM is looking at several issues which have been current through the year.

It is relevant for people providing residential and community-based services. We welcome people from the Bristol Safeguarding Adults team to look at the changes to DOLS and answer your safeguarding queries, together with Beth from UWE School of Nursing to focus on working supportively with people with LDs. Ross McNaughton will be talking on the benefits to the business of using capital allowances.

Plus, some important information from CSW and our AGM.
