Celebrating the Mental Capacity Act

VBA staff got together to mark the tenth anniversary of the Mental Capacity Act. The Act protects vulnerable people over the age of 16 around decision-making, ensuring that every adult, whatever their disability, has the right to make their own decisions wherever possible. It helps make sure that people who may lack capacity make their own decisions and get the support they need to make those decisions. We were glad to mark the anniversary of this important law. Happy Birthday to the Mental Capacity Act!
