Thanks for updating us all @SteveE I'm sorry to hear that not much progress has been made, but I think it's definitely a positive step in the right direction, emailing Mencap and asking for their advice too.
If you need any further support or having other questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us.

Hi my latest experience with the court of protection or as they are called OPG is not great, they are starting to get too involved in trying to run my daughter’s life, where as before I could do whatever was needed for my daughter they are now wanting me to ask permission for things I used to be able to do for the best. I would suggest getting advice from a solicitor to get power of attorney that way you have more control. I would like to know if anyone knows how to come out of the court of protection control. I am consulting solicitors
