The Nick Baxter Memorial Lecture is being held in recognition of his ground-breaking work and entrepreneurial spirit. Mr Baxter, who died last year following a short illness, set up Cornerstone Community Care in 1982 in Aberdeen. He brought together a small group of people to campaign for services to be based in the community for people with learning disabilities. It has since grown into a major charity, providing services to more than 2,000 people with a range of disabilities, illnesses and other health issues. Hundreds of people are expected to attend the lecture, which will be delivered by award-winning entrepreneur, business woman and author Jo Haigh.
