Thank you to everyone who completed our Next Steps Survey 2021, which we circulated to carers in August 2021.
You can read a two page summary of the survey results here: CoEL Next Steps Survey 2021
118 carers filled in the survey and 16 carers took part in our strategy sessions to help the us develop a new business plan for the organisation.
Lesley Patterson was the prize draw winner from the respondents who left contact details. She wins a £50 shopping voucher – congratulations Lesley!
Several respondents voiced their frustration at the lack of respite and replacement care available right now. Respondents also highlighted the need to lobby decision makers to improve support for carers and the people they care for. We recognise that it has been an especially hard time for many of you and are very grateful for all of your feedback.
If you have any questions or comments about the survey or our services, please get in touch. You can call us on 0131 665 0135 or email us at centre@coel.org.uk.
