Monica Quinton
Chair
“I strongly believe that it is important that people with disabilities do not lose their voice & independence; especially those with long term disabilities. I hope to be able to support people in the local community.”
Sara Wilcox
Vice-Chair
I have spent the majority of my career working with older carers and am aware that they access Direct Payments less frequently than the younger generation so this attracted me to KCIL and the excellent work it does in this area.
