I am working with Surrey Independent Living Council, the direct payments
support service for the county. We've been asked to develop a policy on
'vulnerable adults' in line with the policy that the local authority
has.
Looking at this as an organisation of disabled people working from the
basis of the social model/independent living we are having difficulty
seeing how we can develop a policy that will essentially class any user
of social care as 'vulnerable'.
I'd be interested to hear from anyone who has any experience of this or
suggestions.
