TLAP Insight Group (TIG)
TLAP Insight Group (TIG) aims to learn from the Covid-19 pandemic from the perspective of TLAP partners, with a focus on the voice, experience and impact on people accessing social care and support and unpaid carers. It will explore issues for the attention of policy makers, providing examples of good (and less good) practice, and aim to influence what happens locally. Information will be shared by TLAP and through its partners.
