Description

This event will increase people’s awareness and understanding of co-operative models in social care and will provide an opportunity to reflect and discuss these with presenters and other attendees. The event will cover both the ‘principles’ of co-operative organisational models and how these have been ‘practically’ applied in social care settings. Presenters include leading representatives from the co-operative movement, the Cabinet Office and the Department of Health and also people who have developed successful co-operatives delivering a range of social care services, including foster care, home care and advocacy.
