Thank you so much. I’m really grateful for the message. Things have escalated, we had the community police knock at the weekend. Lots of complaints and concerns from local businesses in the town. Plus he was caught trying to take chocolate in another local store, got verbally aggressive. Is now banned.
His wandering around shops, asking people for ‘rewards’ or ‘prizes’ for doing things is obsessive.
The community mental health worker is coming out this week he has been referred to safeguarding. Social services did a needs assessment in May, want to update it as he has deteriorated but struggling to find provision. He has a support worker 1 hour a day 3 days week as interim measure.
I’m just worried he needs somewhere to go where he can be useful with a purpose, safe etc. just nothing out there because of the support he requires.
