Support planning and brokerage for older people and people with mental health difficulties

This guide was developed with older people and people with mental health difficulties and their supporters as well as people involved in support planning. It responds to the findings of the Personal budgets pilots evaluation, which concluded that more work was required to develop approaches to support planning and brokerage that work for all groups of people rather than just some. The guidance and examples included illustrate effective methods for support planning with older people and people with mental health problems that can be built upon by councils and other stakeholders in their local development of self-directed support.
