Complex Commissioning for Complex Needs: using partnerships, individuals assets and lived experience to build fulfilling lives
featuring:
Laura Furness │ Head of Funding│ Big Lottery Fund
Ian Treasure │ Partnership Manager │ Blackpool Fulfilling Lives
Nicola Plumb │ Blackpool Fulfilling Lives Lived Experience Team
James Skelly │ Expert by Experience │ Blackpool Fulfilling Lives
According to research by the Lankelly Chase Foundation (2015), around 60,000 people in England experience multiple and complex needs, defined here as exhibiting at least two of: homelessness, current/historical offending, problematic substance or alcohol misuse, and mental ill-health. This not only affects their lives, but leads to significant social and economic costs associated with a failure to effectively support them. The Big Lottery Fund has invested £112m over 8 years to fund partnerships of local organisations to work together and improve services for people with such needs.
This free seminar will look at what has been learned in the first four years of the programme around how this beneficiary group can best be supported and how that may inform commissioning.
This event will be held at the Ministry of Justice HQ from 17.30 to 19.30. For further details please see the event flyer or to request your free seminar place please book here.
