Consultation process
The opportunity to consult existing stakeholders about the current service, what works well and what not so well, is being undertaken. This will include some consultation with service user groups to seek their view about supported living services and promote the service generally. It has been made clear to service users and carers that the ACSES service will remain the same and is not subject to review.
