Pointing in the Right Direction

How often do you hear people say "If only I'd known that earlier, things would have been so much better!"

Well, it is impossible for ordinary people to read all the leaflets and keep up to date with all the useful websites, but there is a group in Cambridge who make it their job to do so, with the aim of helping disabled people and their carers.

Directions Plus are based near the Cambridge Science Park, and the team of professional advisors and volunteer helpers have helped a lot of people over the years.

Gerri Bird of Directions Plus was nominated for TW2B in 2006 by a grateful couple whom she has helped to get benefits to which they were entitled.
