Learning Disabilities: Share and Learn Webinar - 23 February 2017NHS England
Topic one: Transforming care and the future funding of supported housing.
Guest speaker: Amy Swan, Learning Disability Programme, NHS England.
NHS England estimates that around 2,400 people with a learning disability and/or autism will require new living arrangements upon discharge from inpatient care by March 2019. Supported housing plays a crucial role in enabling people to live in the community.
From 1 April 2019 the Government has proposed to bring in a new funding model for supported housing costs, capping housing benefit to LHA rates. This presentation discusses the recent government consultation on proposals for a new housing costs funding model for supported housing and how to mitigate the resulting impact on Transforming Care.
Topic Two: Care and Treatment Review – key changes in the refreshed policy
Guest Speakers: Maggie Graham and Gavin Harding, Learning Disability Programme, NHS England
This presentation talks about some of the key changes in the refreshed Care and Treatment Review policy.

Creating a Dynamic Approach to Risk Stratification (including dynamic risk registers)
This webinar aims to share learning to help TCPs in developing a dynamic approach to risk stratification (which includes a developing dynamic risk register). The webinar provides the latest guidance from the national Transforming Care Programme and a real life example of how a TCP has approached the problem on the ground.
This webinar covers some of the same material as one run previously for North region TCPs on dynamic risk registers but also builds on that material with the latest guidance.

Helping people with a learning disability to give feedback
Guest Speakers: Ruth Hudson - Insight Specialist, Joe Penrose - Insight and Feedback Officer, Katie Matthews, Aaron Oxford and Thomas Chalk - Learning Disability Network Managers
NHS England’s Insight and Learning Disability Engagement teams recently published their bite-size guide to helping people with a learning disability to give feedback.
The webinar is aimed at staff who do not have much experience of involving people with a learning disability in giving feedback. It is of particular interest to staff working in Patient Experience and Communication and Engagement roles. Most of the services people with a learning disability use are the same services as everyone else, and so it is important they are included in feedback and engagement work. Join the teams on the webinar to find out more about increasing the representation of one of the most seldom heard groups of people.

This report is part of the CIPD’s Learning to Work initiative, which is an action-focused programme led by the CIPD to tackle the problem of youth unemployment. The overall aim is to achieve a shift in employer engagement with young people, so that they are encouraged both to help young people prepare for the workplace and to make the labour market itself more youth-friendly, by offering
a wider range of access routes into organisations and adapting recruitment methods.
In Episode 2 of Research to Action's 'Cup of tea with' webinar series Yaso Kunaratnam Policy & Research Officer at UKCDS spoke about competition, collaboration and impact from the perspective of donors and funders of development research. The webinar took a slightly different approach to the topic stakeholder engagement, looking at the under explored area of how funders can collaborate more. Yaso presented findings from UKCDS' latest report about how funders can better support research uptake and impact.

Acknowledgement
The successful accomplishment of this internship project report required
valuable input, support and guidance from a number of benign individuals. I am
indebted to all of them for their kind assistance.
The first and most acknowledged is my respected supervisor, Julia Tyrrell, for
continually and convincingly instilling her genuine faith in me to overcome every
obstacle. This report would have been unattainable without her constructive criticism
and unhindered feedback.
Next, I am particularly grateful to Rachel Smith, my honourable mentor, for her
true admiration towards my work that provided me the constant encouragement to
keep on keeping on. Her precious time and support and her responsiveness to all my
internship queries despite of her busy schedule is much appreciated.
I would also like to offer my special thanks to Christian Richardson at Save the
Children UK for posting all the brochures and leaflets I required time and again, and
to Julie Tublin for the authorised access to various organisational documents. I also
owe my profound gratitude to Sue Marshall and Ateya Asghar at Coventry University
for their advice and assistance with the collection of my data. I express my deepest
gratitude and heartfelt appreciation to Coventry University and Save the Children UK
for this colossal opportunity and for all the new experiences that I shall reflect upon
and carry along in my future career.
I would not forget to remember all my good friends, continents apart, and my
family for their unlisted encouragement and belief in me.
Finally, this report is dedicated to my respectable supervisor, Julia Tyrrell, for
her confidence in my abilities and for bestowing me with more of the right questions
than with the right answers.

Executive Summary
The purpose of this comprehensive report is to investigate upon the Charity of
the Year (CotY) programme in Coventry as a part and process of specifying key
learning outcomes and recommendations to the host organisation, Save the Children
UK, in effectively taking this project forward. Therefore, the main concern of this
research project has been to research local businesses in Coventry that have a CotY
and to have interested local businesses consider Save the Children as their potential
CotY. To solve the research problem at hand, this report entails the following 5 main
chapters.
The first chapter includes purpose of study and 4 clear objectives formulated to
orient this project. A brief overview of the host organisation has been provided along
with concise background information with regards to CotY partnerships.
The following second chapter assumes critical review of relevant literature to
address key theories, concepts and ideas such as corporate social responsibility,
corporate community investment, corporate giving behaviour and notable trends in
charitable giving. Summarising and synthesising relevant literature while performing a
critical analysis has allowed the researcher to establish a foundation to support
subsequent new insights, developed as a result of conducting the clearly needed
proposed study. The depth and breadth of literature reviewed has provided a
comprehensive knowledge of the research topic and has essentially enabled the
researcher to analyse research findings in this consideration.
The third chapter discusses an appropriate project plan to ascertain a research
solution. This study adopted an interpretivist philosophy. Hence, a qualitative
research was implemented to step into the charity decision makers’ shoes and to get
a taste of their ‘world’. For the collection of primary data, in-depth semi-structured
face-to-face interview as the research instrument uncovered rich insights into local
businesses that currently have a CotY. Both internal and external sources of
5. Coventry University Page | 5
secondary data were supposed to support and supplement the primary data
throughout the study.
The fourth chapter includes strategic analysis of primary and secondary data
collected to address research objectives and questions. Research findings have been
analysed in light of pre-existing theories/concepts. Meaningful and relevant quality
data has been selected to resolve the research question. The primary data has been
interpreted on the basis of various factors such as emergent categories, underlying
implications of the social actors and potential links between identified variables
amongst others.
Finally, the last chapter establishes contribution of this study to the host
organisation. Conclusions have been drawn in relation to the findings and analysis to
outline the useful outcomes of this study. In turn, the research results led to practical
recommendations and future surveys for Save the Children to consider. The resource
implication of each recommendation and appropriate action plan has been discussed
accordingly.
