4 DH – Leading the nations health and care Personalisation Summit Refreshing the Personalisation Agenda The Personalisation Summit, chaired by Norman Lamb, Minister for Care and Support, brought together central and local government with representatives of key social care sector organisations to review progress with personalisation. The summit covered two specific but crucial areas of personalisation: personal budgets, and commissioning and market development. These are not the only areas that can influence personalisation but they are two key areas for us to focus on. There was strong consensus that while significant progress has been made, particularly in increasing the numbers of people accessing personal budgets, that much still remained to be done to ensure: progress is made from area-to-area and with different groups of people; personal budgets are delivering the best possible outcomes for people, carers and families
