Self-directed support: Reducing process, increasing choice and control

This is a report of three workshops; the workshops were held in April 2013 and aimed at council staff responsible for implementing Self-Directed Support (SDS). The purpose of the workshops was to share experience and ideas on improving and reducing unnecessary process that has grown up around SDS.

The report explains the background and context to the workshops and summarises the key themes that emerged from the discussions that took place. Some areas for further consideration are suggested.

The workshops and report were commissioned by the Think Local Act Partnership (TLAP) and delivered by Sitra.
