I am going through the same ordeal as you but, to protect myself, I am NOT going to say much more than I have said before on here as it is a very confidential matter The COP is a dangerous body.

Court of protection

Dandyman01 in reply toIlovecows

49twitter's got it right.. Court of Protection.. that's where you take matters like this. you can even represent yourself {as I am doing coz Sols are useless}

Ilovecows profile image
Ilovecows in reply toDandyman01

What does represent yourself mean and what does sols mean I have a learning disability so It can be hard to understand sometimes thank you

Dandyman01 profile image
Dandyman01 in reply toIlovecows

You are your own solicitor {sols} coz no one cares. I am sorry about your disabilities and the fact you can't find the right help. I dunno but, if you have money to spend, contact Irwin Mitchell Sols and if you don't.. you got to find Legal Aid Sols.. It can be difficult {as they collude} and that is I do it myself

This is so upsetting do you not have anyone who will support you, any family or a friend even, you can’t deal with this on your own.

You can get an advocate to help you . Since you have a disability . My son was in exactly the same position and no body was listening he was under 18 at the time . We were advised he have an advocate and that changed everything .

Rupertthebear profile image
Rupertthebear in reply toRupertthebear

If that doesn’t work get an independent social worker . Stay strong and have faith .

Ask adult social care to refer you to advocacy scheme then you can have someone independent to talk to and who can write letters for you e.g. Pohwer. Some solicitors give free legal advice and some don't. It depends if they have a contract for that. You probably need a 'community care' solicitor if you have problems with the council about social care. Solicitors specialise in different areas of the law. Each organisation should have a complaints procedure and someone should be able to help you. You can make a complaint verbally although it is better to have a written note of the points you are making.

Have you tried the learning disability help line? They were really helpful when I called them for my son.Another thing is you could always speak to your gp they have a duty to protect you.

I am so sorry for you, I hope you get some help, take care.

I do hope you can actually get someone to physically help you. It's not good enough us all saying have you tried this and that. You need phone numbers and contacts. It really annoys me that all this about charities helping people. When it comes down to anyone asking, there's no chance.If you are good with the computer can you find any helplines there? I do hope you get help soon. I feel so sorry for you.

Yes social workers have never been helpful to us either, so I understand what you are saying. You are explaining yourself so well about the meetings and everything. It is awful they are not taking any notice. Always ask for the Manager or Person in charge too and make sure who you are speaking too. Would it be hard for you to send an email to the Director of your social services and complain about the service? I haven't got any disabilities and through the years, trying to help my sons, has been very difficult indeed. So I really understand that you are not being listened too. They are not treating you fairly or with respect from the sounds of it.

Ilovecows profile image
Ilovecows in reply toHolisticMum

I’m sorry to hear that your social worker didn’t help you yes it is hard I don’t really know what to say I don’t know how to find out there email A lot of people be stupid and do that thing where they just say they’re not doing anything wrong it’s because this person has got a disability they don’t know what’s happening they they just thinking that people are doing things wrong

I mean ask the independent social worker about your concerns. One of your concerns was does she as the independent social worker have to speak to the council social worker. Just ask the independent social worker about ALL the concerns you have. You will be paying her, part of her job is to answer your questions.

Ilovecows profile image
Ilovecows in reply toFELTSPAR

Ok thank you very much

FELTSPAR in reply toIlovecows

Make sure that the independent social worker specialises in learning disability.Try the Sunshine support Group first, they are very good.
