Supporting Lives, Connecting People is the name for Adults’ Service's community-led support approach.
Community-led support focuses on early intervention and prevention and on enabling people to be as independent as possible.
It involves working with people to identify their strengths, capabilities and existing support networks to help to prevent or delay the development of their social care needs.
It works collaboratively with a range of partners, including people who use our services, family and friend carers, voluntary and community sector organisations, the NHS and other local councils, to design a service that works for everyone.
