This short film looks at commissioning personalised services based on work in Dorset. The film highlights initiatives funded by Dorset County Council Innovation Fund. The fund provides start-up money for small independent providers to develop a range of services which local people with personal budgets might purchase. The idea is that the projects will eventually be self sustaining. A key feature of the fund is that the panel which assesses the applications is predominantly made up of people who use services and carers. This film describes a project for adults with learning disabilities call New Ground. This teaches participants to grow and cook their own food. Another project featured is ‘Woofability', a small enterprise which provides specially trained dogs to disabled people as helpers and companions. The film ends by featuring a project which aims to improve the capacity of the county's user-led organisations to share resources, expertise and back offices functions. (Publisher abstract)

The difficulties faced by mental health trusts, councils and service users in trying to introduce self-directed support in mental health services are well rehearsed. As well as responding to the challenging target for the universal offer of personal budgets by 2013, if personalisation is to be a meaningful reality for people with mental health problems and offer them a fundamentally different relationship to services at the same time then commissioners and providers must adopt a radical change in approach. This article sets out some top tips on the key questions that need to be addressed and the groundwork that needs to be done with stakeholders to create an environment within which personalisation can be successfully rolled out for people with mental health problems, their relationship

This guidance shows that direct payments are not the only way to give people choice and control over their lives and makes the case for new approaches to support people, should a direct payment not be the preferred option. It makes the case for the following alternatives: micro-enterprises - funding a local person, family or small business to develop a good support solution with the person; Individual Service Funds – having a flexible budget which is managed for you by a local support organisation or person; and new models of commissioning – where funders organise their systems differently to enable choice, flexibility or reduce the complexity of personal budgets. It suggests three new approaches of commissioning: community sourcing, place-based working, and a modernised infrastructure which uses the internet to make it easy to individualise funding and widen support options. The guidance includes examples of good practice and advice to help implement these approaches. (Edited publisher abstract)
