Better Together 2019 Event Report

January 29, 2020 By OxFSN Webmaster

OxFSN’s second Better Together Event was held on the 7th November 2019 at Didcot Civic Hall.

It was attended by 52 Professionals from Health, Social Care, Education and the voluntary sector along with 42 family carers of children or adults with learning disabilities and/or autism. 3 adults with learning disabilities and their supporters also attended.

The event followed the format of a ‘World Café’. This year there were eight tables with one topic on each table. This was as a result of feedback from people attending the previous year’s event who felt they needed more time to discuss fewer topics.
