Our Children's programme, also known as 'Taking Control'
started in 2007 with seven local authorities. To date, we have
worked with more than 40 children's services across England.
Through the programme, we work to support children's services to
implement self-directed support for children, young people and
their families.
There are now more than 500 disabled children and young people
across the country who have an individual budget and more than
3,000 that have a budget managed through a budget holding lead
professional (BHLP).
In the menu to the left you will find further information on the
work that's being undertaken through the programme.
Programme members have access to a secure area of the website
with further shared information, best practice tools and resources,
information on exclusive member-only publications and events and a
network forum.
For more information about the Children's programme
and how you can join, please see our support programmes and
services page, or email the programme lead, Nic Crosby.
