Mentoring service is among the best in the country
A DEVON community mentoring pilot supporting people over 50

In April 2006 Social Services was re-organised. Social care for adults comes under the 'Adult & Community Services Directorate', along with adult education services. Children's social care is now part of the 'Children & Young People's Services Directorate', along with the Local Education Authority functions.

So, whether you are a patient, service user or carer, a member of the public, a member of staff or a policymaker, we would like to hear from you.
