Talkback want to develop the self advocacy groups already established, they also want to set up new ones to include more people especially those who are often not included for example, young people and people with high support needs.

Pat Crewe and Karen Murray were already working in the roles of self advocacy supporters in Craven and Harrogate. Talkback was keen to develop and expand the work they had started. Since then we have seen Self Advocacy Groups go from strength to strength and you can see by their meeting notes some of the work they have been involved in.
