Living Well Partnership - Engagement Space

The council’s overall direction for adult social care is built on three core strategies named ‘Ageing Well’, ‘Caring Well’, and ‘Living Well’, setting out priorities over the next five years. The three strategies were co-designed with people who use services and their friends and families. They focus on how the council will support people across the city, whether they are older people, those with a care and support need with learning disabilities, mental health challenges, autism, living with additional physical or sensory difficulty, or the friends and family of people with additional needs.

A Partnership group has been formed to manage the development, delivery, and monitoring of the yearly action plans for each strategy. This will build on the work of the previous year and in reaction to emerging needs and trends.

All action plans contain a desire to further develop co-production meaning there will continue to be multiple methods for residents to be a part of the work going forward. Whether via membership of the partnership group, through focused pieces of work on specific activities or design, or by engagement through the website and social media.

We know how busy people are and how precious your time is; therefore, we want to try to do this in multiple ways to ensure we get as much feedback from carers as is possible in as convenient a way as possible.

The survey has been separated into different sections, for residents to engage in every month. The schedule has been detailed below:

  1. Outdoor Spaces, Buildings and Housing (how you feel about buildings, parks, green spaces, pavements, roads, and housing in Southend) From Wednesday 1st February
  2. Transport and Social Participation (how you feel about the bus and train service in Southend, and community integration) From Wednesday 1st March 2023
  3. Respect and social inclusion & Civic participation and employment (how you feel about how you are included in employment and volunteering opportunities). From Saturday 1st April 2023
  4. Communication and information & Community and Health services (how you receive information about your local area in Southend, and the support services you receive) From Monday 1st May

All surveys will close on Wednesday 31st May 2023.

We are also aware that people may be interested in more than one of the strategies and as such we will link together so people can navigate between more easily.

The ‘Living Well’ strategy looks at the needs and wellbeing of adults of working age with additional needs such as physical, sensory, learning difficulties, mental health challenges and autism. Best practice has shown our residents living with these challenges would benefit from a person-centred approach to care, which supports them to live independently and be involved within their local community.

Priorities and action plans within this strategy focus on five priorities:

  • improving people’s health and wellbeing promoting health lifestyles
  • preventing the number of hospital and care home admissions
  • developing suitable housing and principles of housing support
  • delivering health, care, support and housing in a more joined up way
  • encouraging community inclusion and ensuring integrated person-centred services that enable people to take control of their care and focus on their strengths
