28th June 2023
Yesterday, the 28th June 2026 was the 3 year anniversary of Falkirk Champs bringing a motion to the council.
The motion asked that Falkirk start treating care experienced as if it's a protected characteristic.

It was a unanomous yes!, since then care experience has been included in Equality Poverty Impact Assessments, that check how a proposed decision will affect the care experience community positively, neutrally and negatively. This is then considered when decisions with EPIA's are taking place.
