The ‘vision thing’ The freedom to be yourself – making it easier for older people to lead independent and fulfilled lives • High quality accommodation • Creating balanced communities • Support and care when needed • Affordable housing and care • Community resource • Embracing national agenda – choice, voice and control

  11. More choice with a stronger voice • Older people positively contributing to strategy • ‘Iterative’ influence – on going • Choice between and within schemes • Choice with security and protection • Mixed tenure schemes

  12. Tackling inequalities and improving access to community services • Specific focus – and ‘balanced’ communities • Outreach and inreach • Access and ‘environmental’ quality issues

  13. Better support to people with long term needs • Strategy based on OP demographics • Flexibility in response to changing needs • Assistive technology – developments • Intermediate care

  14. And other key imperatives • Value for money – for commissioners and older people • ‘Levering in’ of ‘capital and revenue’ • Knowing about outcomes – surveys, research, outcome framework • How real an alternative to residential care? – current questions • Taking all stakeholders with you – consistently and transparently
