Planning for the Future post 16

Many of us are worried about what will happen as our kids get older; where they might live, how they will manage and what we need to to do to prepare them.  If they are going to be staying at home after finishing education, what will they be doing and what support can we get as a carer? What are we going to do ourselves with the rest of our future? We also need to think about what happens when we are no longer able to look after them. With that in mind, PCAN is running an event on:
