The Big Conversation
West Northamptonshire Council are embarking on the Big Conversation regarding Adult Social Care Provision.
They are reaching out to the VCFSE for support and help in spreading the word.
Why the VCFSE?
As a voluntary or community organisation, you hold trusted relationships with people the local authority may not always reach. You understand their experiences, their strengths, and the barriers they face. That’s why your role is vital in helping the local authority ensure everyone can be heard.
What’s Happening?
West Northamptonshire Council are developing a new plan for adult social care in West Northamptonshire. To shape it, they are launching a survey and a series of “Big Conversation” events across the county. These are safe, welcoming spaces where people can share their thoughts, ideas, and experiences.
How can the VCFSE help?
The VCFSE can:
- Encourage and support the people you work with to Complete the Adult Social Care survey, which is open until 30 July 2026.
- Help them book on and attend a Big Conversation event.
