The Princess Royal Trust Highlands Carers Project

New Craigs Relatives Advocacy

The residents of New Craigs long-stay learning disabilities provision are moving into homes of their own in the community, following recommendations from the Scottish Executive that all such hospitals should close by the end of 2005.

The Highland Carers Project is providing advocacy to the relatives of these individuals throughout the period of the move, to ensure that relatives are kept informed, involved and supported at all stages of the process.

The residents concerned are also being provided with their own advocacy, through Enable, throughout this period.
