New Forest centre runs great person centred planning sessions
Posted on Wednesday, 1st February @ 17:14 pm by Mandy
New Forest Day Services have made great use of some extra funding to help people start thinking about their person-centred plans.
They applied to the Adult & Community Learning Unit (part of Hampshire County Council); for funding and then set up sessions for a small group.
People worked on things like their best day; what do people like about me; their wishes; life story lines with smiley faces on the happiest times. They used drawings and disposable cameras which made things more fun and accessible. They also had a local couple come in to talk about their own plan and how it had helped.
The course got really positive feedback - so much that people have asked for more person-centred planning!
