Expo is the most significant annual health and social care event in the calendar, uniting more NHS and care leaders, commissioners, clinicians, voluntary sector partners, innovators and media than any other health and care event.
Expo 15 returned to Manchester and was hosted once again by NHS England. Around 5000 people a day from health and care, the voluntary sector, local government, and industry joined together at Manchester Central Convention Centre for two packed days of speakers, workshops, exhibitions and professional development.
This year, Expo was more relevant and engaging than ever before, happening within the first 100 days of the new Government, and almost 12 months after the publication of the NHS Five Year Forward View. It was also a great opportunity to check on and learn from the progress of Greater Manchester as the area prepares to take over a £6 billion devolved health and social care budget, pledging to integrate hospital, community, primary and social care and vastly improve health and well-being.

Keep the Promise - Inventing a NEW Long-Term Care: Nancy FoxChristina Edwards
The document discusses the need for culture change in long-term care facilities away from an institutional model that strips autonomy and freedom. It outlines a person-centered model that recognizes residents' need for choice, relationships and engaging in meaningful activities. Facilities that have implemented culture change through physical transformations, organizational changes and personal growth report higher satisfaction rates, lower turnover and improved health outcomes compared to traditional facilities.
Final person centred approaches to best practice in dementia care 3slidehava
This document discusses person-centered approaches to dementia care. It begins by outlining the guiding values of person-centered care: valuing people, autonomy, life experience, understanding relationships, and environments. It then discusses what a person-centered approach is and how its values can be used to support active aging. Specifically, it provides examples of how each value - valuing people, autonomy, life experience, understanding relationships, and environments - can be applied to optimize opportunities for health, participation, and security as people age. The presentation concludes by thanking the audience and expressing the value of relationships between organizations.

The Alchemy Project is a co-production action research project between Dance United Yorkshire, Cultural Utilities and Enterprises, and several early intervention psychosis services within the South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust. The project uses contemporary dance training and performance over four weeks to help young adults accessing early psychosis services. It aims to improve patients' positive affect, functioning, and relationships by addressing isolation, low confidence, and lack of motivation. Evaluations found the dance intervention significantly improved mental well-being and quality of life scores. It is an effective treatment that challenges expectations through non-clinical focus, increases wellness through physical activity, and reduces isolation through social connection.

Inclusive communication means providing a range of ways for people to communicate and be involved in expressing their needs, feelings, and making choices. It involves spending time with others and sharing information in a way that individuals can understand. Positive outcomes of inclusive communication include feeling safe, treated with dignity and respect, being involved in decisions, and receiving good quality healthcare. Effective communication is important for everyone, but often nobody takes responsibility for it. Staff have an important role to play in creating an environment where people can interact and build relationships through communication.

The document discusses how arts and culture can be used to support people's well-being and deliver positive outcomes. It notes that the Care Act of 2014 places an emphasis on promoting well-being and using community assets. Co-producing commissioning is highlighted as an approach where professionals and citizens share power to plan and deliver support together. The document provides examples of outcomes that arts and culture can address, such as mental health, education, and community cohesion. It also outlines factors that influence how commissioners engage with arts organizations and the goals of the artscommissioningtoolkit.com website in supporting arts groups to engage with public sector commissioning.
This document summarizes a project involving Culture and Wellbeing in York that used arts and culture to promote wellbeing. It involved several arts organizations and a university center. With help from consultants, they developed an understanding of commissioning, built commissioner relationships, and devised a way to communicate how arts can contribute to wellbeing. This resulted in identifying six ways that culture can promote wellbeing. The project found that arts helped increase independence, communication skills, and saved someone's life. It is now developing additional programs involving drama, arts access, singing, and sensory environments. The work faces challenges around budgets, complex health landscapes, and being seen as difficult to understand, but has advantages of collaboration and health/wellbeing priorities.

This document discusses personalization and where it is going. It summarizes that over 2,500 families now have more choice and control over their support, and government policy now champions a more personalized approach. However, personalization is still in its early stages and more work needs to be done. Going forward, organizations need to work together with the focus on being child, young person and family centered. The risk of not taking a personalized approach is that the needs of the individual may not be properly met.

Support groups in Coolock, Finglas, and Blanchardstown offer members social activities and community. Feedback shows the service improves confidence, social connections, and quality of life for those involved. It currently supports over 100 individuals through befriending matches and social groups.

Parallel Session 4.2 ‘It’s What Matters to me that Counts’ – Keeping the Pers...NHSScotlandEvent
This document summarizes Thistle Foundation's journey towards implementing a person-centered approach over the past 15 years. It discusses how Thistle redesigned services, invested in training staff in person-centered concepts, and now uses the Talking Points framework to focus on identifying and realizing personal outcomes for those supported. The framework emphasizes building strong relationships, focusing on strengths and what matters most to each person, and involving natural supports. While progress has been made, fully translating positive changes to quality of life remains a work in progress.
Individual Service Funds (ISFs) allow individuals to have more choice, control, and flexibility over their support by holding a personal budget with a designated organization. ISFs move away from a traditional "professional gift" model of services toward recognizing individuals' entitlements and prioritizing citizenship, community involvement, and good lives rather than just services. An ISF arrangement involves an assessment of needs, support plan, and agreement between the funder, designated organization, and individual about how the budget will be used. ISFs can help support move away from rigid, contracted services toward more flexible, responsive support that adapts to individuals' changing needs over time.
Parallel Session 3.6 Reshaping Care - Shifting the Focus and Shifting the Power?NHSScotlandEvent
This document summarizes presentations from a conference on shifting the focus and power of healthcare to communities.
The first presentation discussed community engagement, resilience and health service development initiatives in Scotland's Annandale and Eskdale regions to better support older adults, those with long-term conditions, caregivers and people with dementia.

The document outlines what will be covered in a training on values and action at Merry Glen, including: the history of attitudes and services for people with disabilities; Merry Glen's unique history as a family cooperative established in the 1970s; residential guidelines and client services; positive behavior support planning; and The Merry Glen Way values of kindness, skill, reliability and teamwork. It provides context on developmental disabilities and an overview of non-profit residential service models before concluding with a message about creating a kind workplace environment through our beliefs and actions.
The document describes the College Internship Program (CIP), which helps young adults ages 18-26 with learning differences transition to independent living. CIP offers a full-year residential program with individualized academic, career, social, and life skills support. Students live independently in apartments while receiving services like advising, tutoring, internships/jobs preparation, and therapy. The goal is for students to gain the skills and confidence to live independently after the program. CIP has multiple campus locations and offers a summer program as well.

Similar to Quality of Life Approach practised by care provider Changing Our Lives (20)
The independent evaluation of Think Local Act Personal (TLAP) found that the partnership makes a significant impact by championing personalised care, increasing awareness and understanding, and influencing policy and practice. Survey and interview respondents widely agreed that TLAP produces resources grounded in lived experience, identifies quality care standards, and increases support for community-based models. The evaluation concluded that TLAP is an important driver of positive change and recommended it continue sharing good practices, reframing personalisation, and standardizing data collection to further its impact.
This document discusses the experiences and perspectives of a parent caring for a child with autism. It describes the challenges of navigating education and support services to meet the child's needs and achieve life outcomes. Key points include: the lack of coordination between education and other services; the importance of person-centered planning in focusing on strengths and aspirations; and the need for empowering information and resources to allow families to remain in control of support for their children. The parent's experience shows how person-centered planning helped their son progress from isolation to independent living.

Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.

A Guide to AI for Smarter Nonprofits - Dr. Cori Faklaris, UNC CharlotteCori Faklaris
Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.

2. Quality of Life approach is made
up of:
Audits
- checking people’s quality of life from rights
based approach
Practice development
- changing the way people think and work with
people with disabilities
3. Quality of Life standards
• Rights based set of
standards covering a whole
life.
• Young people through to
adult.
4. What is a Quality of Life
audit?
• A Quality of Life audit is a
person centred way of
measuring how services and
community supports enable
people with disabilities to
lead an ‘ordinary life’.
• It is person centred because
it follows the person through
their life.
5. An ordinary life
We define an ‘ordinary life’ as:
• being part of the community
• being employed
• having access to education
which enables you to
develop as an individual
• living in your own home
• being in a relationship
• having friends and family
around you.
6. Rights based approach
• The approach we take in the
standards, audit and practice
development is not about
services.
• Our approach is about having
a LIFE!
• Based in belief that to lead a
full LIFE, a person needs
more than paid services.
• People need families, friends
and other natural supports
that you find in the
community, as well as paid
services and supports.
7. Reshaping services
So in walking through people’s
lives, we encourage services to
change and reshape
themselves so they are able to
support individuals to lead full
lives.
• Supported living
• Residential and nursing care
• Short breaks including residential
respite, support in the home and a
range of community provision
• After school clubs, youth clubs and
nurseries
8. Reshaping services
• Leisure provision
• Youth and community groups
and organizations
• The impact of direct payments
and personal budgets
• The impact of social work
teams both in adult and
children’s services
• Or they are used as a person
centred way of measuring the
effectiveness of a whole
service, for example, a local
authority learning disability
service.
9. • Over the last 3 years
our Quality of Life
audit team worked
with 1241 young
people and adults
covering 165 services
and community
supports.
10. Audit tools
• spending time with individuals
and ‘walking through’ their life
• meeting with the person’s
family
• unannounced visits of
services and supports
• interviewing staff teams,
managers, Directors, CEO
• observation of practice
• checking people’s plans
• checking strategic documents
such as commissioning
strategies, business plans for
providers
11. Practice development – getting people to
think and work differently !
• Challenge events – pledges
made for cultural change
followed by audit.
• Idea’s festivals
• Dragon’s Den
• Self-authored lives –
modelling planning for
Quality of Life.
12. Quality of Life
impacts on 3 levels
impact on individuals
impact on commissioning
impact on practice development and
cultural change
14. Impact on individuals
• More people being part of
their local community
• People moving to a place they
call home
• More people with profound
and multiple learning
disabilities using
Communication Passports
and increased numbers of
staff trained in different forms
of communication
• More people gaining paid
employment
• Changes in support staff
resulting in individuals getting
better person centred support.
15. Jayne Gallear
• Labelled as ‘challenging’, red stickered
• Demonised
• Isolated from peers and the community
• Skirted assessment and treatment
17. Jayne
“My communication is respected.”
“I’m in my own home, with good staff.”
“I’m now treated like a human being.”
“I have individual support.”
“I have got to the top of the climbing wall.”
