Workshop 4 - Fair Care: health and social care co-ops - Alex Birdkarenebirch
Social care co-operatives first emerged in Europe in the 1970s and have since grown significantly. There are now over 7,000 social care co-ops in Italy that employ over 244,000 staff and provide 13% of Italian social care expenditures. Studies show social co-ops in Italy provide superior services at lower costs compared to state programs. Other European countries have also developed social care co-ops, including over 1,200 childcare co-ops in Sweden. The success of these models is driving interest in developing similar social care co-ops in the UK and Wales.
Social Enterprise UK - Social Value ActHACThousing
The document summarizes the Public Services (Social Value) Act, which requires public bodies in England and Wales to consider how contracted services can improve economic, social, and environmental well-being. Specifically, it covers that (1) the Act defines social value and applies to public service contracts over certain value thresholds, (2) it stems from calls for social value to be considered in commissioning to support local jobs and organizations, and (3) it has implications for housing associations to embed social value into their commissioning and procurement practices as the Act goes into effect in January 2013.
MEETING 4 PRESENTATION (7) INSIGHT SOCIAL RESEARCH LTD / HSCP (UK) IVISOC 2012fisky-wisky
The document summarizes recent UK policy changes that impact volunteering and the relationship between the voluntary sector and health/social care services. Key policies discussed include the Localism Act of 2011, which devolves more power to local governments, and the Health and Social Care Act of 2012, which restructures the NHS. These policies aim to dismantle the "big state" and promote the "Big Society" by encouraging local groups to deliver more public services. The changes open opportunities for voluntary groups to bid for new contracts but will require adapting to a more business-focused approach.
Gwen Crawford - Understanding Social ValueHACThousing
Gwen Crawford presented on Bolton at Home's approach to social value. Key points include:
- Bolton at Home is a housing association established in 2002 that now owns 18,000 homes
- Their objectives include improving social, economic, and environmental conditions for customers
- They have an established approach to social value that considers their role as a business, service provider, commissioner, and employer
- They include social value requirements in procurement and contracting processes like apprenticeships and local hiring
- Case studies highlight partnerships with organizations like Forrest and Warburtons that have delivered social outcomes in the community
This document is a declaration signed by onshore wind farm developers and operators in Wales to provide community benefits. It commits signatories to engage communities from an early stage, provide transparency around benefit schemes, and maximize economic and social impacts through cooperation. Benefits may include community funds, infrastructure, events, and training. The Welsh Government expects a strategic, consistent approach that leverages multiple funding sources. Signatories pledge early engagement, probity in managing funds, and participation in a community benefit register.
The document discusses social change and civil society efforts. It presents a "Social Change Grid" that maps different levels of social change efforts from individual to societal and from informal to formal. It then provides two case studies - the Living Wage movement in the UK and the Bristol Food Movement - to illustrate how social change has occurred through a combination of community organizing, direct action, engaging the public sphere, and gaining institutional support. The key lessons highlighted are that social change involves different actors taking different complementary actions toward a shared goal, and the importance of relationships, collaboration, and perseverance over time.
The document discusses co-production in health and social care in Scotland. It provides:
1) Context on the financial challenges facing the system and calls for more collaborative approaches, as outlined in the Christie Commission report.
2) Details on relevant legislation, including the Social Care (Self Directed Support) Act, which aims to give citizens more control, and the Public Bodies (Joint Working) Act, which integrates health and social care.
3) Examples of co-production in action, such as a program supporting hospital discharges that has avoided admissions and saved over £700,000. It emphasizes culture change and building citizen capacity.

This document discusses a project called BTAU that aims to support small and medium enterprises (SMEs) within Natura 2000 sites in Poland, Bulgaria, and Hungary. The objectives are to contribute to long-term management of Natura 2000 by creating a new biodiversity investment market and establishing Biodiversity Technical Assistance Units and a Biodiversity Financing Facility. SMEs are important for rural economies but face constraints implementing Natura 2000. The project developed ways to identify businesses compatible with Natura 2000 and is designing financial instruments to support "pro-biodiversity" small businesses.

Gavin Saunders 'Neroche Woodlanders: A Case Study in Woodland Management' D...Shared Assets
This document discusses the Neroche Woodlanders, a community-run social enterprise that occupies 100 acres of woodland in Somerset, England. It started as a Forestry Commission-run landscape program but has since spun out to become independent while still being supported by the Forestry Commission. As a community benefit society and not-for-profit enterprise, Neroche Woodlanders relies on strong local community support and volunteers. It aims to deliver social well-being benefits and environmental gains from the publicly-owned woodland. However, there were also challenges in setting up this unconventional arrangement with the landowner, including concerns over liability, sharing access to timber, and dealing with a non-traditional contractor.

NHS Sustainability Day Liverpool CCG Road Show4 All of Us
Sustainability was on the menu once again as the Road show cycled it’s way to the North-West and arrived in Liverpool to a warm welcome. Delegates from across the city and throughout the North-West were on hand to participate in an inspiring day of presentations, knowledge sharing and motivation.
Sarah Dewar and Professor Maureen Williams, Deputy Chair NHS Liverpool CCG were on hand to deliver inspirational sessions focusing on debate, action and good practice. Delegates entering the event were asked to jot down what they wanted to take away from the day via post it notes which were then displayed on the entrance to the venue. Postcards were also handed out with delegates tasked with writing down what they will do on NHS Sustainability Day.
The morning session kick-started with Fiona Daly, Environmental Manager at Barts Health, discussing Sustainability Day on March 27th 2014. Fiona was followed by Professor Sir Ian Gilmore, University of Liverpool who spoke passionately on the city and the important role sustainability can play in improving healthcare and supporting the people of Liverpool. The morning session also saw presentations from Dr Tim Ballard, Vice-Chair of the RCGP who was on hand to address the role sustainability can play in general practice and supporting commissioning of health services.
The mid-morning session saw best-practice examples on a wide range of areas including waste and water. Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen University Hospitals Trust were on hand to discuss their work with Carillion around the new development in the city.
The afternoon discussions saw delegates interacting with each other to identify solutions to the challenges they face around sustainable development. The day concluded with delegates outlining their promises via the postcards distributed earlier in the day.
It is these promises which will ensure NHS Sustainability Day 2014 is a success and the weight of expectation amongst the Liverpool delegates was high. Many of them leaving the venue inspired, motivated and enthused. It is through this motivation that the NHS has a chance to deliver huge change in the next few years via sustainable practice and with inspiration such as that seen in Liverpool we think the future is looking bright!

The document discusses connected health and telehealth initiatives in Scotland. It provides context on Scotland's population of 5.3 million people and devolved health system with £12 billion in annual NHS funding. The vision by 2020 is for integrated health and social care focused on prevention, self-management, and home-based or community care when possible. Key drivers for change include an aging population, chronic conditions, workforce shortages, and financial unsustainability. The Scottish Centre for Telehealth and Telecare coordinates national telehealth and telecare programs to help manage demand on the NHS and deliver clinical services more efficiently using technologies like telehealth.

Nhs Sustainability Day 2016 Liverpool Road Show4 All of Us
March 26th this year saw over 300 healthcare organisations take action to promote sustainability and increase public health awareness and we are fortunate enough to have the support of; Public Health England, Department of Health, Department for Energy and Climate Change and The Prime Minister, David Cameron. Working with these stakeholders we aim to further develop the links between health and sustainability thus improving economical and health outcomes within the UK.
For the 2016 campaign, beginning in September, and to celebrate our 5th year of the campaign we will be promoting 50kg of carbon. This is effectively promoting what the public and health professionals can do to save 50kg of carbon. This could be achieved through; walking to work, cycling, planting a tree etc.
The NHS 5 Year Plan -Neil Goulbourne presentationmckenln
The document discusses the implementation of the NHS Five Year Forward View. It outlines three key gaps - in prevention, care models, and funding - that must be addressed. It then describes five new care models being tested, including integrated primary/acute care systems and multispecialty community providers. Local health systems are invited to develop new models that can be replicated nationally to transform care delivery and close the gaps.
The document summarizes the role and activities of Academic Health Science Networks (AHSNs) in the UK. It discusses how AHSNs act as catalysts and connectors to spread healthcare innovations, improve health outcomes, and generate economic growth. It provides examples of innovations that have benefited from AHSN support and been adopted in the NHS. It also outlines goals and initiatives around building partnerships across health and social care systems and supporting life sciences industry and innovation infrastructure.
The document summarizes a meeting about long-term care in Europe. The key points are:
1) An aging population in Europe will triple the number of people over 80 requiring long-term care in the next 50 years, increasing demand and straining budgets as there will be fewer working people.
2) Member states will need to shift from a reactive to a proactive policy to address this by increasing citizen autonomy through technology, increasing home care efficiency, and better integrating health and social care.
3) The EU can support member states by promoting testing of new solutions, funding research and innovation, and helping members states learn from each other through programs like the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy A

Here are the key differences:
- Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) refers broadly to a company's initiatives to assess and take responsibility for how its actions affect wider society and the environment.
- Corporate Social Investment (CSI) refers specifically to targeted investments and partnerships that are designed to purposefully create social value and impact in communities, in addition to generating business value for the company.
- CSR initiatives are often more general programs and policies around ethics, values and sustainability. CSI initiatives have explicit social or environmental goals and metrics to measure outcomes and impact.

The document summarizes the progress of integrated health and social care in the UK. It discusses initiatives in Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales to integrate services through organizational structures and partnerships. In England, integrated care efforts have focused on developing new payment models, leadership programs, and evaluating 14 pioneer sites demonstrating innovative integrated models of care. While challenges remain, the government is committed to supporting integration through aligned policies, incentives, and a long-term strategy focused on improving outcomes for individuals.
The document summarizes the impact of government public sector cuts on Blackburn with Darwen. It discusses cuts of £48 million over four years for the local council, including £29 million next year alone. This will require cuts to council services and tough choices about priorities. The Care Trust Plus will also need savings of over £6 million in 2011/12 and similar amounts in future years to deal with limited funding increases. Residents will be consulted through meetings, surveys and an online tool to provide input on budget cuts.

Suitable housing is essential for personal well-being and quality of life at all stages of life. It enables access to services, social relationships, and independence. Housing associations play an important role in supporting health by providing suitable accommodation and programs that prevent falls, reduce isolation, and encourage healthy behaviors, especially for older residents and those with disabilities or long-term conditions. Through adaptations, supportive housing, and care services, they can help people maintain independence and avoid expensive acute health services.
District councils’ contribution to public healthThe King's Fund
Our health is primarily determined by factors beyond just
health care. These slides illustrate the ways in which district
councils influence the health of local people through their key
functions and in their wider role supporting communities and
influencing other bodies.
The King’s Fund Events organise more than 20 health and social care events each year. Our highly-regarded conferences attract leading speakers from the government, the NHS, local authorities and the independent and voluntary sectors.
Jos de Blok set up Buurtzorg – which means ‘neighbourhood care’ in Dutch – with a team of four nurses. Today there are nearly 8,000 Buurtzorg nurses in 630 independent teams, caring for 60,000 patients a year. Nurses in Sweden, Norway, Japan and the United States are adopting the Buurtzorg model.
While women currently make up 44% of registered doctors in the UK, they are underrepresented in medical leadership roles, with only 24% of trust medical directors being women. Although 55% of medical students are now women, indicating they will likely become the majority of the medical workforce in the next decade, women currently account for just 32% of consultants compared to 54% of trainee doctors. Research has identified barriers for women progressing into leadership, such as work-life balance, organizational cultures, and personal expectations.
Our infographics highlight some key facts and figures around leadership vacancies in the NHS and some of the difficulties NHS organisations face in recruiting and retaining people for executive positions.
Sharing leadership with patients and users: a roundtable discussionThe King's Fund
‘What more is possible when patients, service users and those delivering services share the leadership task in health and social care?’
We held a roundtable discussion with patient leaders and organisational leads to discuss this question. Our slidepack summaries the conversations, including the opportunities and challenges for patient leaders, and where and how to start shared leadership working.
Making the case for public health interventionsThe King's Fund
In partnership with the Local Government Association, we have produced a set of infographics that describe key facts about the public health system and the return on investment for some public health interventions.
We hope they will be a useful resource for you – please feel free to use them in your office, in documents or presentations.

The document summarizes the findings and recommendations of the Commission on the Future of Health and Social Care in England. It identifies three key problems with the current system: it is unfair, funding is separate between health and social care, and services are not well coordinated. The Commission recommends a new system that 1) commissions health and social care together, 2) simplifies access and increases personal control, and 3) increases free social care provision over time. However, these changes would require more funding. The Commission believes the costs can be covered through tax increases focused on those who can afford to pay more, and that the reformed system would be more efficient and achieve better outcomes.

Are you looking for a long-lasting solution to your missing tooth?
Dental implants are the most common type of method for replacing the missing tooth. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants are surgically placed in the jawbone. In layman’s terms, a dental implant is similar to the natural root of the tooth. It offers a stable foundation for the artificial tooth giving it the look, feel, and function similar to the natural tooth.
