Past co-captains
Our Purple Steering Group is a dedicated team of learning-disabled people who attend our Lifelong Learning Programmes and have direct experience of our work.
As Co-Captains, the group meet 8 times a year and act as a bridge between participants and the Board of trustees.
The group use their experiences, skills and knowledge to help us make decisions on behalf of participants at Purple Patch, give us feedback, and advise us on best practice.
The group are experts in what they do and having their voices and cooperation helps to ensure that what we do and the decisions that we make at Purple Patch meet their needs.
The group are directly making a difference to the service that they attend.
