They have like Area Managers who are supposed to keep check on the people in their areas.
When I first joined the guy was great, he came to see me when I joined and would call me at least once a fortnight to see if he could help with anything. He left, and apart from a few emails I have had no contact with his replacement.
I was in my 30s before I had even heard of ASBAH, and that was only as a result of a chance meeting with an old school friend, who has the same health issues. Unless you cause a fuss and chase and chase, and know who to chase, nobody seems to really give a toss.

Well i've just looked at the quarterly newletter Wecil sends out and it says in Wales it is registered charity number 1053515 - see if that helps and i will ask my daughter re Wales when we speak and see if i can glean any more about help if you should need it - what part of Wales are you - generally ?
