Gary, Emma and Andy introduce Shared Lives Oldham on Channel 4 News
We’re so proud of Gary and his Shared Lives Carers Emma and Andy, after their appearance on Channel 4 News!
We introduced them in 2016 and they’ve been living a fantastic shared life ever since.
The news item aimed to shine a light on different models of care and support for ageing people with learning disabilities. And that’s raising new questions about how to provide the care they need as they age.
Watch footage from their appearance on the Channel 4 News YouTube channel, as Ruben Reuter reports on new ways being found to offer appropriate support as people’s care needs change over a lifetime.
A big thank you to Ruben and the C4 crew, and of course to our TV stars Gary, Emma and Andy who did brilliantly!
“Life is better shared”
