Just wanted to say a huge thank you for your assistance with the Conference last week. I really appreciated all that you did in the lead up to the day and on the day. We could not have managed without you!

Conferences

It’s very useful to have an organisation to go to that can offer professional advice in respect of more complex cases, and gives workers another ‘tool in the box’ – the advice is well regarded, and has always been most helpful, and importantly makes sense and helps to put situations into context.

Consultancy/Enquiries

Whenever I contact the service for advice & support this is always forthcoming. Advice comes back quickly, with detail and based on in-depth knowledge and experience.

Consultancy/Enquiries

AFKA are always my first port of call, guidance gratefully accepted.
