“Who will support my daughter after I’ve died?” - the stuff dreams and nightmares are made of

The Foundation for People with Learning Disabilities has launched Thinking Ahead, a campaign to highlight the distress felt by parents over who will care for their son or daughter when they die and the need for national and local policy to support for families to make plans for the future. The Foundation is calling for better support and changes in policy and practice to help families to prepare for the future and as part of the campaign is launching its own planning guide, designed with families and carers, to address this shortfall in support.
