Complaints, Suggestions and Compliments Policy

Making a Complaint

We aim to handle complaints quickly, effectively, and fairly. You can make a complaint:

  • In person or by telephone

  • In writing (letter or email)

  • Through a staff member, advocate, or representative

Complaints should be made within 12 months of the incident, although we may waive this in certain circumstances.

How We Handle Your Complaint

  1. Acknowledgement: We will acknowledge your complaint within 3 working days and provide the name of the person investigating it

  2. Investigation: A senior member of staff will investigate thoroughly and keep you informed of progress

  3. Response: We aim to complete investigations within 28 working days and will provide a detailed written response

  4. Resolution: We will explain our findings, any action taken, and how we plan to prevent similar issues

We assure you that making a complaint will not affect the services you receive from us.
