A great turnout @ WALK’s town hall meeting. In summary organisations like WALK remain underfunded. Parents and families struggle to access residential and respite services

Today our day services and respite services closed ahead of industrial action that starts tomorrow. Hundreds of people without a service, hundreds of staff devastated that it has come to this. @abilitywest repeat our plea to avert this action tonight
National Federation of Voluntary Service Providers@NatFedVSP16 Oct 2023
We urge all in the WRC to reach resolution and we hope for this to come tonight. Without resolution we face a very bleak prospect tomorrow morning for people we support in disability services, their families and staff who do not wish to be in this position. #Section39
