Sharing access: showcasing the impact of local collaborations in accessing information, advice and assistance

In this session, you will hear from the leads from Cardiff’s First Point of Contact for Independent Living Services and Vale’s Wellbeing Matters service to learn more about how the services have developed, the types and range of services offered and the impact they are having on keeping people well through a number of real-life case studies.

We will discuss how feedback from people with lived experience has informed support for unpaid carers and how the local authority are working with health for a more connected approach to accessing services. Then we will look to the future of accessing services, how trusted assessor and digital developments will continue to support our communities.

The workshop will be facilitated by Chris Ball, Ageing Well Programme Manager along with partners from Cardiff Council Independent Living Services and Vale Wellbeing Matters.
