SWAN is pleased to hear of resistance to erosion of public services and a defence campaign to save disability support services in Barnet. SWAN extends its full support to these vibrant campaigns.

Barnet Carers Campaign Against Changes to Disability Support Services (CADDSS), was launched to defend those service users receiving critical and substantial care services from paying more. This campaign bringing together carers and service users is exactly the sort of campaign SWAN wants to help foster.

You can read more about the campaign here. For more information contact CADDSS by email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or phone 07957 486379 to speak with Janet Leifer.

In addition Barnet Alliance for Public Services have been campaigning against the 'One Barnet' outsourcing programme in the borough and highlighting the links between Andrew Travers, Barnet Council’s deputy chief executive and Capita who are bidding for £750 million worth of business from Barnet Council.
