NVFF Looking for Stories about Closure of ILF

08 July 2015 by Val Bowen

The National Valuing Families Forum (NVFF) brings together a network of regional family carer organisations to consult and feed into government policy and legislation affecting those with learning disabilities and their families. The Forum helps the National Learning Disability Programme Board know what is important for families. The NVFF are collating stories about the problems being caused by the closure of the Independent Living Fund (ILF )and the transfer of funding to local authorities. Please contact Sue Kirkman by email if you wish to speak to her about sharing your experience of how the ILF has affected you and send a story.

When I moved to Sheffield nearly five years ago it was my "go to" organisation. I expect it to stay that way. All the staff and volunteers seem to pull out little gems of effort that disabled people like me couldn't do without. Professionally and personally - I love em :)

A fantastic presentation thought provoking and good questions from the floor around promoting this film/message to the general public not just professionals.

Disability Sheffield is a forward-thinking, energetic organisation doing a lot of positive work in Sheffield. I have no doubt they will continue to do so for a long time to come.
