Valuing People presents a range of challenges for managers and older stakeholders. Partnership Boards are charged with leading the change process. This article sets out the steps that the West Sussex Board has taken to meet these challenges and describes in particular a 'framework for frameworks' that the Board has adopted to produce truly person-centred and inclusive plans. Concludes that stakeholders can be empowered to find their voice where planners commit to an inclusive process.
