Another "More Than A Provider" gathering inspired by #SocialCareFuture.
This promises to be a vibrant day full of fun activities and positive examples and stories. Together we’ll share the great ways that people are already connecting in our communities across London in our commitment to change social care.
The Big Connect!
Our supportive and lively event will include stories, art, music, drama and workshops to show how innovative codesigned social care and inclusive local communities are intrinsically linked to our vision for #SocialCareFuture. Split over 2 floors, the event will have a mixture of talks, workshops and creative activities all designed to bring people together to connect over their experiences.
Activities will include:
- Inspiring stories - People with lived experience, community groups, social care organisations and local government will all share examples of how we we’re already connecting people to live inclusive lives in our communities.
- Inclusive workshops and demonstrations - Camerados will lead us in the importance of coming together. Beyond words will share the beauty of storytelling.
- Connect & Do – From singing to sewing, printmaking to jewellery making or experimenting with musical instruments – why not try one of our many coproduced activities that connect people together through shared interests.
- Sharing knowledge - Hear about the positive changes being made by social prescribing with Enable and new local community-based approaches to encouraging people to join social care, as well as exploring with Learning Disability England what it will take for everyone with learning disabilities to be able to live their good life.
Together, we will challenge traditional views of people who are supported in our communities. People are not passive recipients of social care. This event will demonstrate that we are all strong community contributors and leaders.
Find out how you can get involved, contribute and start taking action to help people live the lives they choose. Connected, we are building our Social Care Future.
