Hi everybody! I'm campaigning with my fellow disability rights campaigners and I am part of the movement which is Social Care Futures. Here are the key enquiry outcome suggestions:
- Promote a new story of change to inspire the wider public to support the future we seek
- Underpin this story with examples of the approaches that exemplify this future and working with others to grow and to spread them
- Challenge and change the present through action at all levels to close the gap between the positive ambition of the Care Act 2014 and reality on the ground
- Develop the practical solutions to move us towards our vision, navigated by people whose experience and insight comes from drawing on care and support to live their lives
- Build a social movement for change
We are all working hard to make these a reality in adult social care.
I am also a member of IMPACT, which is improving adult care together. This is the new research centre. The professional in charge is Jon Glasby, please see below the link:
