Merthyr

We currently have six partnerships, all very different. However, at the time of writing there are nine people waiting for advocates! One of the highlights of the year so far
has been the resettlement of two ladies from Hensol Hospital, after living there for almost 40 years. An advocate has helped them to become part of the community, including going to church together.

Meet the co-ordinator:

Ann Amos first became involved in Person to Person when her husband became an advocate for Tim, who lived in Hensol Hospital.

"I realized the importance of an independent voice for people with a learning difficulty, particularly when I found out Tim had been promised many times he would move out of the hospital without it ever happening."

You can get in touch with the co-ordinator directly using the following phone number or e-mail address:
