PROMOTING CHOICE: the third sector and the personalisation agenda

NAVCA/TSA Regional Seminar
Friday 26th March 2010
10.00 – 4.00pm
at the Queen Hotel, City Road, Chester


The personalisation of social care is a major change in the way that adult social care will be delivered in the future. It has important implications for the third sector (voluntary, community, faith, social enterprise and other not-for profit groups and organisations), both for those who currently deliver or may want to deliver services, and those who advise or support users of services.

This event is aimed at small and medium sized third sector organisations. It will provide national, regional and local perspectives, an increased knowledge of the personalisation agenda and explore how organisations can get involved in bidding and delivery of services to provide choice for vulnerable people.

Full details of the event and an application form will be available shortly. The cost for attending the event is £10 (bursaries may be available) and demand is likely to be high.

You can register your interest in attending by emailing Anne Lancaster on anne.lancaster@chesterva.org.uk or by telephoning 07801 015 261 or 01244 323527.

Surface Water Charges

Action with Communities in Rural England (ACRE) welcomes the announcement by
United Utilities Water Company that it is to continue its moratorium on surface water
charging for a further year (2010/11), and extend it to include eligible village halls
and community centres.

During early 2009, following the announcement of the moratorium, ACRE and the
Rural Community Action Network (RCAN) made strong representation to United
Utilities Water Company, Defra and Ofwat regarding the failure to include halls and
community centres in the 2009/2010 moratorium. ACRE also had concerns that this
would lead to exclusion in other areas in the future.
