Personalisation overview

Personalisation means thinking about public services and social care in a different way – starting with the person and their individual circumstances rather than the service. It affects everyone in adult care and support. Our resources help commissioners, providers, managers, frontline staff, carers and people who use services to transform and personalise care.
