We are thrilled to announce that In Control Scotland have been successful in securing funding from The Alliance Self Management Fund. This 3 year funding package will allow us to create a Person-Centred Planning Academy of disabled adults and unpaid carers to deliver person-centred plans for disabled young people.

 

Having a person-centred plan allows people to dream; to have their experience, gifts, strengths and talents recognised and celebrated in a system that is typically deficit heavy and lacks creative solutions. Person-centred planning opens the door to natural, community, and mainstream opportunities to live a good life, building resilience and aspiration in equal measure, and having this facilitated by someone who can truly relate to their experiences is extremely powerful.

 

The project team is now working hard behind the scenes on putting this idea into action, and we will be recruiting for participants soon. Watch this space!
