Let’s throw traditional on its head, we are now in a new environment where we are all readjusting and learning. It’s about pushing aside what we used to do and making room for the new era of involving consumers in what we do. Utilising the principles of co-production with organisations, consumers and stakeholders we designed an exciting, fun and engaging programme. Co-designing materials allowed us to achieve better results by drawing on the expertise of the people and professionals that matter and producing training materials that are relevant to them. We want to share with you our learnings on this project that CommunityWest developed for COTA Australia.
It’s a series of training modules that support advisers to embrace working within a consumer directed care (CDC) model. The training uses innovative models, and revolves around 12 different videos (including consumer conversations, insights from consumers, advisers, subject matter experts, humour and reflection).
We asked the sector what CDC topic they found most difficult to discuss with consumers. Out of the 41 organisations that responded, results showed that 70% said budgets, 20% new types of support.
This training gives advisers real examples that enable them to embrace the thinking, skills and practice (TSP) for transitioning to a CDC model. We’re able to demonstrate how an organisation can go about the fundamental shifts needed for CDC by promoting choice and control through constructive conversations.

The Social Services and Wellbeing Bill heralds a quiet tide of innovation
The Social Services & Well-being (Wales) Bill aims to improve social care outcomes for people in Wales through major legislative changes. The bill introduces a prevention and early intervention focus, with duties on local authorities to provide services that enhance community well-being. It emphasizes person-centered assessment and eligibility criteria. The bill promotes co-production of services, citizen participation, and new models of community-led and integrated health and social care. It seeks to deflect people from acute services and invest in communities to support individuals' well-being.
The Children's Society Engage Toolkit: introduction
The document summarizes the work of The Children's Society Include Project, which works to influence policy and practice for young carers and their families. It operates several initiatives to support young carers, refugee families, and families affected by issues like HIV. One initiative, the Family Carers Inclusion Project, aims to improve health and social care access for ethnic minority family carers by bringing professionals together and consulting with minority groups to understand needs and develop resources.

Tyler Keys proposes using 2% of each student's tuition at Vanderbilt University to fund extracurricular activities, which are currently cost-prohibitive for many students. Experience Vanderbilt (EV) currently provides up to $500 per student for extracurriculars through private donations, but 62% of EV recipients have not participated in extracurriculars due to costs. Keys argues that using tuition funds could lessen financial burden, improve quality of life, involvement, retention, and make Vanderbilt more inclusive and competitive against peer schools.

The document introduces ECC's Extra Care Housing Strategy. It discusses drafting the strategy based on various reports and reforms. It outlines the accommodation strategy for older people in Essex from 2007-2009. The strategy focuses on extra care housing, testing the model and eligibility, monitoring usage, and measuring its success as an alternative to residential care. It discusses the need for extra care housing due to an aging population. The document provides details on the current supply and demand for extra care housing and other housing options for older people. It discusses informing the strategy with research and what other areas are doing. The vision is for extra care housing to be an important option that can reduce residential care and hospital admissions. The plan is to work with partners to
Technology for Community Empowerment
Universities can play a role in addressing problems that negatively impact community wellbeing by developing ICT solutions in collaboration with community members. The document proposes an Athlone Living Lab that would use technology to care for, inform, and educate citizens on issues like substance abuse and HIV/AIDS. Some challenges to the lab include gaining community buy-in, funding, and ensuring sustainability. If innovative solutions are co-developed with communities, technology could empower citizens and improve social outcomes.
Civic Participation
Putting people at the heart of everything we do is a key strategic principle for Newham Council. It is committed to better involving residents because working together with our communities achieves better services and outcomes and makes the borough a happier and healthier place to live.
We set up a Democracy and Civic Participation Commission in 2020 to enable democracy in the borough to become more representative and participatory and to look at alternative governance models for the council.
We established the UK’s first permanent citizens assembly and one of the country’s largest participatory budgeting programmes to support our residents to be “policy makers” and “budget makers”
We also mobilised pioneering alliances to “co-produce” with residents and partners, setting Help Newham to mobilise staff and residents to provide emergency support during the pandemic, and the Newham Social Welfare Alliance which brings together frontline partners to support residents at risk of crisis.
We set up Health Champions to engage residents to protect themselves from Covid, now leading a national network, and are training residents to carry out research in their communities as part of the UK’s first longitudinal programme through community-led research.
CT 19 Workshop: What Makes Funders Tick?
This document summarizes the work of the Social Finance Impact Incubator, which partners with charitable foundations to tackle social issues. It discusses the Incubator's process of prioritizing themes to improve quality of life for older people in the UK.

For transport, the partners agreed to focus on better coordination, seeing it as a key underlying issue. The document outlines the Incubator's multi-phase process and notes some lessons learned about engaging funders, including making clear how grants can make a systems-level difference beyond business as usual.

7.01 giving to others_ppt
The document discusses financial goals related to giving. It defines healthy giving as giving out of excess that results in positive emotions, and unhealthy giving as using giving to gain power over others. The document provides tips for preparing to give, such as creating a spending plan and avoiding using credit. It also discusses how giving changes throughout one's life cycle, from receiving gifts as a child to giving assets to others in retirement. Finally, it notes how concepts like earnings, savings, and risk management relate to one's ability to give.
Workshop E Work-care reconciliation in different welfare systems - Nordic Sates
In Finland, family care and support for family caregivers of older people has received increasing political and public attention in recent years. While generous social services are available for all, caregivers still have few legal rights and protections in the workplace. Common coping strategies for working caregivers include using home care services, reducing work hours, or early retirement. Efforts have recently been made to improve caregiver support, such as increasing funding for caregiver services and providing temporary caregiver leave through new legislation. However, more remains to be done to recognize family caregiving as a work-life issue and ensure caregivers do not bear an undue burden.
Vibrant Communities #starterfor10k
This document discusses the re-focusing of public services in East Ayrshire, Scotland. Drivers for change include drops in public sector funding, demographic changes, increased demand, and national reforms. A new service called Vibrant Communities was created by combining over 100 employees from various departments. Vibrant Communities takes an asset-based approach, focusing on community-led action plans, volunteering, and connecting community assets. These plans have led to increased community involvement, new organizations, and communities taking a more proactive role in their development. Small community projects have had big impacts through activities like litter cleaning, crowdfunding, and youth programs.

The Outcome Economy
1) The document discusses the opportunity for technology to improve organizational efficiency and transition economies into a "smart and clean world."
2) It argues that aggregate efficiency has stalled at around 22% for 30 years due to limitations of the Second Industrial Revolution, but that digitizing transport, energy, and communication through technologies like blockchain can help manage resources and increase efficiency.
3) Technologies like precision agriculture, cloud computing, robotics, and autonomous vehicles may allow for "dematerialization" and do more with fewer physical resources through effects like reduced waste and need for transportation/logistics infrastructure.
