Ryan's been going through a adult social care assessment to assess if the daycentres he attends are still suitable, sometimes these assessments are used to reduce costs, reduce services, this one was really quick only took 4 weeks, good news is, no reduction in services, and Ryan will carry on going to his daycentre with no changes 🥳

•Their child is aged between 5 and 16 years old.
•Their child has a current Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP).
