Welcome to the forum Sandy, lovely to have you. You are a carer representative to mental health boards? As in you sit on boards as an advocate? I formerly was a board member of our local chapter of the Schizophrenia Society and also of the Alzheimer's Society. And I have sat on too many boards to count, in my profession as an MSW. It's not an easy position, well done to you.
Thankfully both sections here, private and public, have become more active of late. I think my complaining helped a bit.
In any event, very lovely to have you Sandy, I look forward to chatting with you more.
