  2. What do we mean by Personalisation? Citizenship! This is part of the human rights agenda

  3. Personalisation - Citizenship • Citizenship – getting a life – being an individual • Independence and equality • Choice and Control

  4. Personalisation - Citizenship • A right to Self determination – disabled children and their families are the experts – they know what support they need • The promotion and support of self – organisation • Finding creative and flexible solutions

  5. Getting a Life!

  6. Underpinning personalisationagenda Direct Payments Personal budgets Individual budgets Self directed support – emerging from work by In Control Person centred planning – life planning around the principles of inclusion and the social model of disability.

  7. Drivers Valuing people – A New Strategy for Learning Disability for the 21st Century (DoH 2001) and Valuing People Now 2009 - 2012 Improving the Life Chances of Disabled People 2005 Putting People first 2007

  8. Drivers Aiming High for Disabled Children 2007 SEND Green Paper – draft provisions on SEN and Disability – part of the Children and Families Bill – 2012 Think Local, Act Personal

  9. The impetus to support our most vulnerable children and young people and their families must in 2012 be viewed within the context of their human rights – their right to citizenship – to a life

  10. Life aspirations and goals Focus on outcomes Holistic planning - health, learning, employment, relationships, social, leisure and spiritual/emotional

  11. Our Challenge To work with our local communities and all Our stakeholders – to increase and transform short breaks and family support services making them fit for the 21st century – to deliver ‘Personalisation’

  12. Personalisation - Citizenship Investment in universal services – that support families to lead fuller lives as Citizens Focus on prevention and early intervention Building social capital

  13. Personalisation - Citizenship Personalisation requires a significant change in approach – The role of commissioning is changing/has changed – no ‘bulk buying’ – the role is to shape the market To promote high quality options

  14. Less reliance on block contracts between providers and Local Authorities Development of Framework Agreements – providers approved to deliver services but not guaranteed business – this is down to individual choice

  15. How do we ensure we do this? • We must listen to and engage with families • We must work with providers and new partners • We must develop new ways of working and deliver innovative practice

  16. We must: • Facilitate or broker services for families with personal budgets

  17. The point of our activity is to transform the social conditions of our local Communities

  18. Managing Change – the agenda requires not only a change in attitude but a change to our 'systems and processes' People react differently Expectations need to be managed realistically Fears have to be dealt with

  19. Learn together and facilitate change - don’t instruct or impose ideas – explore the possibilities together and give permission to take risks

  20. Despite pressure on public finances – demographic growth, increasing numbers of children with disabilities - social care is a growing market Delivering more and better with less.
