We are grateful, also, to the volunteers who have helped in the various establishments
and in befriending some of our clients.
As in previous years, we continue to rely on many national voluntary organisations
who provide residential care for the mentally ill and the mentally handicapped
who can no longer live in their own homes. These organisations include the Mental
After Care Association, the Cheshire Homes, the National Society for Mentally
Handicapped Children, the Brighton Guardianship Society, the Elizabeth Fitzroy
Homes for the Handicapped Trust, the Sons of Divine Providence and many other
religious organisations.
