It was the @ParentsFed 'Understanding Disability Awards' earlier this week. We won in the 'Professional' Category for all our work with individuals, and the community through our social media app, Insight and our wider use of Technology over the last few years. Thank you so much!

Fantastic way to end the year. Some of our carers enjoying a pedal power session in Cardiff.
Many Carers have said that without these activities they would be isolated.

Many thanks to all of you that have completed our short survey smartsurvey.co.uk/s/H6AE3S/.
So far we have had some really great feedback. If you haven’t yet completed the survey please take a few minutes to share your views- it really helps us to speak up for carers. #staysafe.

This is what we are doing - we need your help to get carers (paid unpaid) to understand the importance of what we do, and help people to access it. @ParentsFed @InnovateTrust @MirusWales @DimensionsCymru @cardiffcouncil
