Personalisation

Power to the People? Study Day.

Is personalisation truly delivering more power to mental health service users? SPN explored the issues at an SPN joint study day on Tuesday 8th July in Northampton.

Rita Brewis of In Control talked about making self directed support a reality.

SPN Executive Committee member, Daisy Bogg, examined the issues for services.
