Justice Together
Donation protected
More than 3000 families have children or young people with a Learning Disability held in an Assessment and Treatment Unit (ATU).
The families go into crisis mode as they try to learn what the system now means, how they can help their child and they live with the real fear that their child may be injured, abused or even die in there.
NHS trust 'failed to investigate hundreds of deaths'
Justice Together is a joint project between Bringing Us Together and Respond , together with a core team of other volunteers.
We want to bring families together to share their learning, their experience and their knowledge so we can help families to avoid this.
We want to ensure that our website has all the information, resources and support families need so they do not need to spend hours searching the internet for it when they are emotionally exhausted.
We also want to provide Justice Circles for those families with children in ATUs who need help. A Justice Circle would offer support by providing a co-ordinator to the family, to help them navigate their way through the system. Someone who would take the burden of learning the system away from the family, so allowing them to deal with the emotional impact this brings.
The monies raised will go towards financing:
* website hosting & maintenance,
* promoting the site and contents so families know it is there,
* working with families to ensure the information is relevant,
* events to bring families together,
* meetings for a core group of families to keep driving forward their campaign work and
* funding Justice Circles for families.
Every penny counts. So please don't think it isn't worth donating if you can only afford £1 or £5, every penny will contribute to making a difference in some way to help families in crisis.
