Caring for people who live at home - a Department of Health initiative - triggered a review of respite services in Liverpool in 1993. Self-advocates from Liverpool's largest day centre, Holt Hall, were invited to work with the National Development Team to ensure and integration of their views and ideas. In contrast to most fact-finding about respite services, advocates made a significant and unique contribution to the review. Their critique and ideas have resulted in new prospects and possibilities for respite services in the city. This paper considers some of the issues which arose during the course of the audit.
