Campaigns

Hft is committed to providing the best possible outcomes for the people we support, and the best working experiences for our staff. The issues that matter to them matter to us.

This means that we often engage in campaigns and advocacy. Everything that we do aims to promote innovation and the sustainability of the social care sector, as well as improving the rights of and opportunities for people with a learning disability, regardless of whether or not they are supported by Hft. We use the same evidence-based, positive approach that is the hallmark of our Fusion Model of Support to promote creative and innovative solutions to some of the most pressing challenges being faced by the social care sector.
