Going to a hearing
Going to a hearing
What is a hearing?
This is the formal occasion when an application is heard by the Tribunal. At the Guardianship Tribunal, we try to make the hearing as relaxed and informal as possible. We know that coming to a Tribunal hearing can be daunting for everyone concerned - the person the hearing is about, the applicant, the person's family and friends.
For this reason, we have:
- support information for you to read before the hearing
- support information about what happens during the hearing
- information about what happens next and who to go to for further assistance after the hearing.
For more details, please see the information sheets available for download from 'Publications'.
For more information about getting to your hearing, please see the contact us section of this website. The facilities & assistance section may also be helpful.
