📢 Have your say – Future Planning Workshops for Families
We’re inviting carers, parents and family members to join a supportive online workshop to share experiences and ideas about planning for the future for adults with a learning disability.
Hosted by IMPACT (IMProving Adult Social Care Together) in partnership with HSC Trusts, these relaxed sessions are a chance to:
💬 Share your views and experiences
🤝 Learn from others
📝 Help shape future planning materials for families

Planning ahead can feel overwhelming, but your insight can help create practical, accessible information and make future planning more positive and achievable for others. There’s no pressure to speak – share as much or as little as you like.

📅 Tuesday 19 May | 2:00 – 3:30pm
📅 Wednesday 20 May | 7:00 – 8:30pm
👉 Open to carers, families and staff

It has been a pleasure to facilitate a practice learning placement for Klaudia, an Ulster University Social Work Student over the last number of months. Klaudia quickly became a valued part of the Destined team, showing professionalism, care and compassion to our members. We wish her every success in her future career as a Social Worker. Destined have welcomed the partnership with Bryson Care who play a key role in contributing to the development of Social Work Placements in the North West.
