Good Life Community

The Good Life Community

All of our activities at Imagineer have a ‘Strengths-Based’ focus. In recent years at Imagineer, our activities have been developing in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, the rising costs of social care, the financial impact of living with a disability, and the changing governmental policies relating to Health and Social Care integration and Personalisation.

Our aim is to strengthen the impact, the voices, the influence, and the impact of communities in helping people to live good lives; and to ensure that people are educated and well informed about their rights so that they can access the support they are entitled to.

As our organisational activities have developed, we have formed a clear sense of our purpose and what we can offer:

• Information, Advice & Guidance in relation to Self-Directed Support
• A range of training for people, professionals and organisations
• Developing and sharing tools & resources to help people build stronger lives
• Building alliances with people and organisations to form stronger voices and achieve greater impact in our work
• Leading and collaborating on projects which aim to further embed the principles of Self-Direction, Equality, Inclusion, Citizenship and Advocacy
• Supporting disabled people and those living with long term health conditions to develop peer support networks
• Listening, gathering and sharing people’s stories
• De-mystifying health and social care systems and processes
• Educating and advocating for people’s rights to be upheld
• Providing consultancy support to organisations and communities who are working towards better equality, inclusion and self-direction
• Delivering Independent Support Brokerage and Brokerage Management
• Hosting and developing the Support Brokerage Network as a community of practice for everyone involved in the approaches of Self-Direction and Personalisation

All of these different activities form our ‘Good Life Community’, and we would encourage anybody who is connecting with us to become a member of the community!
