Rough guide to personalisation

A free guide to personalisation is available from the Social Care Institute for Excellence (SCIE).

Personalisation: a rough guide, defines the different types of personal budgets available; it explains how the idea of personalisation came about , what it is intended to do, and its impact on the workforce, third sector oganisations, private providers, user led organisations and commissioning.


SCIE carries out research, identifies good practice in social care and disseminates its findings.
It is an independent charity funded by the Department of Health, Department for Children Schools and Families, and the devolved administrations in Wales and Northern Ireland.
