A lot of these organisations have sprung up because there is a gap in the backup services for people. Once they are in place, therefore, the question is not only about ensuring they get the support but also that there is co-ordination in the services provided and that they work with other groups. I found that every one of them seemed to have been working very independently in many ways.
