People who have mental health issues or learning difficulties tend to spend a lot of time in segregated places when, in general, services should be helping them move more into places used by everyone, and to get involved in activities open to everyone. The National Development Team had developed an 'inclusion traffic lights' system to help staff think about what they are doing now, and how they could support service users towards greater social inclusion. This article describes the model and then shows how it had been used by day services.
