This working group was for organisations which were actively considering setting up services for people with Individual Budgets.
At our initial meeting we introduced a couple of exercises which help organisations to review current activities and explore opportunities for setting up new services.
Later sessions focused more closely on the business ideas of the people who came to the meeting. At each session we explored two ideas in more detail, which helped people to make progress on their particular idea, but also highlighting wider issues which are relevant to others (such as charging for services). At each session we helped people to identify their next steps for making further progress, offered further one-to-one support and referred people to other support agencies where appropriate.
