• Greater information on<br />
accessing other services and<br />
support with completing<br />
forms and applications<br />
• Lack of articles written by<br />
members in <strong>Open</strong> <strong>Hand</strong><br />
• Longer running hours of the<br />
Information & Advice line,<br />
including evenings and<br />
weekends<br />
It was also clear from the day<br />
that some members and their<br />
families may not be aware of<br />
all the services provided by<br />
DBUK. All of the issues raised<br />
at the forums will be taken on<br />
board and looked into. We will<br />
also continue to provide<br />
updates in <strong>Open</strong> <strong>Hand</strong> on the<br />
feedback we’ve received and<br />
any plans to develop our<br />
services.<br />
If you would like to attend one of our member forums listed<br />
