About us
About ADASS
We are a membership organisation for those working in adult social care.
As a charity we work with professionals, other organisations and people with lived experience to influence decision makers, policy and legislation – from the local to regional and national level.
We raise awareness of the benefits social care can bring to individuals and communities, and aim to ensure all of us who need care and support can live the lives we want regardless of age, ability and background.
Annual reports
Our Annual Reports are published in April of each year and are distributed to members before the annual spring seminar and AGM.
Constitution
The constitution, revised in 2023, clearly defines the purpose, values and objectives of the association.
