Free event
In March 2019, the National Commissioning Board issued guidance, “Commissioning accommodation and support for a good life for people with a learning disability.”
One year on we are inviting you to join us to reflect on the implementation and impact of the guidance and what next steps are needed.
At “Commissioning for a good life: one year on” we will present the findings of our bench-marking exercise on how the guidance is being used in Wales.
Speakers from Welsh Government, commissioning bodies, providers, self-advocacy and parents and carers movements will give their perspective on the guidance over the past 12 months.
Speakers will be:
- Dave Street, National Commissioning Board
- Steve Garland, Garland Independent Social Care Advice
- Kathryn Whitfield, North Wales Learning Disability Transformation Programme Lead
- Steve Brown, Commissioning and Procurement Officer, Flintshire County Council
- Adrian Burke, Chief Executive, First Choice Housing Association
- Joe Powell, Director, All Wales People First
- Many Evans, Chief Executive, Mirus
- Andrew Belcher, Director of Services, Mirus
- Kate Young, Director, All Wales Forum of Parents and Carers
Monday, 16 March, 9:45 to 3:15
Venue: Futures Inn, Cardiff Bay
