At In Control we're committed to creating a fairer society where
everyone needing additional support has the right, responsibility
and freedom to control that support. In fact, we were the pioneers
of self-directed support and for nearly a decade now, we've
supported more than 400 organisations nationally to transform their
services and deliver personalisation.
We partner with local authorities; user-led organisations;
government and civil servants; elected members and paid staff;
commercial companies; charitable and not-for-profit organisations;
as well as working directly with people who need support (and their
families).
Our work includes:
Focused action - to develop, test, motivate and
support new practice and cultural change for self-directed support
- and to make self-directed support happen in communities and in
local authorities.
Critical reflection - evaluating the success of
self-directed support based on how it's really working for people
who need support.
Learning together - helping to build communities
and networks for shared learning and partnership, by working across
agencies, with local and central Government, within communities and
other organisations, and directly with families.
