Older Family Carer Initiative, Foundation for People with Learning Disabilities - FPLD
Person-centred approaches and older families [authors: Dalia Magrill, Helen Sanderson, Alison Short]
(May 2005)
The Older Family Carers Initiative, was a three year project designed to support Learning Disability Partnership Boards across England to identify and meet the needs of older family carers of people with
learning disabilities. The project began in 2002 and finished in 2005 with a new toolkit developed to help the Boards, entitled "Valuing Families : a toolkit for family friendly services".
This resource has been written as part of the Older Family Carers Initiative in direct response to the concerns raised by person-centred planning facilitators and coordinators. This is intended for people who are already informed about
person-centred planning approaches and want to make sure they are planning with older families in the best possible way.This report is intended as a tool to be used primarily by people whose role it is to: (a) plan directly with older families
and (b) coordinate person-centred planning on behalf of their Learning Disability Partnership Board.
