@SadeAsker Excellent. Congrats. What a great team of ALRs we now have in Wales.

After a very long wait thanks to COVID, I am beyond thrilled to have been awarded the Mental Capacity (Welfare) Accreditation today with ALR status 🎉 This is one of my proudest career moments to date & I can’t wait for my first case as an Accredited Legal Representative!

The Court of Appeal has overturned Hayden J's ruling in Re C. Care workers WOULD risk committing an offence by supporting C to access the services of sex workers/prostituted women. Here's Lord Burnett's conclusion (he wrote the main judgment).

This is simply appalling. May you get better soon. linkedin.com/posts/ignatius…

Mental capacity, the internet, and when is it better to be honest about the limits of support? mentalcapacitylawandpolicy.org.uk/mental-capacit…

Good to get some of the committee back together today albeit remotely. An in person meeting next on the agenda to make some plans for CoP in Wales.

Any takers? This is a £50-60k salary. Bonus is you get to work with me.

For any lawyers in Wales I would be happy to collate some comments and perhaps submit something on behalf of @CoppaCymru.

Still time to sign up to this JR / COP seminar on 29 Nov with Denzil Lush, @Law1DCG and @sutton_es. Hosted by @WelshGovernment.

We are at CoPPA National Conference in Manchester today. Some interesting presentations. Thinking about the future of CoP and how CoPPA can help local practitioners.
