Embolden Newsletter July 2019
Welcome to the 6th and final edition of the Em.bold.en newsletter. The Embolden project was started in 2017 to give a stronger voice to older families who have relatives with learning disabilities to influence decision makers, hold them to account and improve services. We are just about to complete the final year of the Comic Relief three-year funded project although OxFSN will continue to support and raise the profile of older family carers in everything they do.
