ADULT’s AND CHILDREN’S SERVICES

SOCIAL CARE FOR THE 21ST CENTURY

We enable councils to understand the root-cause drivers of demand into local social care systems, with a view to preventing, reducing or delaying demand for acute services, alongside the identification of opportunities for savings and efficiencies.

Adult and Children’s services are at the heart of the public sector’s duty to support those in need or at risk within our communities. As such, councils dedicate a significant amount of their resources and energy into ensuring that these services deliver their purpose of unlocking a better future for those who need them. However, in the absence of much needed national reforms, councils face an uphill battle to achieve this. Facing new regulatory challenges, increasing demand and stretched budgets, local authorities need to reimagine services so they are fit for the 21st Century. We can help councils achieve this by reframing existing change programmes, ensuring they are reflective of local nuance and are prioritising the activities that will deliver the greatest impact.
