Positive Planning for our Future
#Camphill #Community #Mourne #Grange is involved with a #policy #development #group called #Advanced #Care #planning. During #COVID it has been highlighted that not enough people take time to think about how they want to be cared for and what happens to them if they die. This can include thinking about #organ #donation and planning your #funeral. This is an area of #life that people with #learning #disabilities are often not involved in and families can make decisions for them. This…
The Impact of COVID on our Lives
#Camphill #Community #Mourne #Grange really appreciates being able to work with #ARC (#Association for #Real #Change).

Mourne Grange takes time to contribute to Regional Reviews and Development
It is important that we take time to look beyond #Camphill #Community #Mourne #Grange and look to the broader #landscape in which we live.

This has meant that some of the #policies and the way #services are delivered have had to be looked at to see if we can learn anything and maybe do things differently.
