    The document provides feedback from a national forum on the Self Assessment Framework (SAF). Attendees discussed improving the SAF in four key areas: 1) Ensuring local councils take the SAF seriously and that results reflect what people say, not just "tick boxes"; 2) Whether people feel they have choice and a good life in terms of where they live, activities, support etc; 3) Having resources and support to be active citizens through work, community involvement, and advocacy; 4) Health and social care coordination, access to supported living, information in easy read format, and impact of cuts. Suggestions were made to collect further stories through online and video methods with participant consent.

    National Forum of People with Learning Disabilities Feb 16th and 17th 2016

    Feedback on the Self Assessment Framework


    Craig, Alison and Tina told people about the SAF. Delegates then worked on the three question
    headings in groups.
    Here are their ideas. We have highlighted the most important ideas in yellow.

    About the SAF


    Is your local Council interested in the SAF? How do we make sure that Councils take this seriously
    and do it properly?
    How do we become the people who bring things to the attention of Government and other bodies,
    not just the people who tick the boxes?
    How do we make sure that the answers reflect what people with learning disabilities and families
    have said? We all have experience of the Red, Amber Green does not match what people have said.
    The results are manipulated and untruthful.
    How do we include people who do not get a service?
    A more sophisticated rating system.
    Use the headings in the DH Action Plan to stop duplication.

    Having a Life
    Do you think you have a good life? If yes, why?
    If no, why?
    Where do you live? Do you have a choice about where you live? And who you live with?
    Questions about choice.
    Do you understand choice?
    Do you get a choice about what you do?
    Listening to people and families
    Education
    Training
    Benefits
    Work
    Leisure and free time
    Family
    Relationships
    Support.

    Active Citizenship and Rights


    Do you have the resources and support you need to be an active citizen?

    I see myself as a citizen, but other people dont


    To be an active citizen:
    I take part in my community
    Work
    Being Forum members
    Voting
    Having a relationship
    Having children and bringing them up
    Volunteering to help others
    People who do not speak are citizens too, but how can they be active?
    Black and minority ethnic groups are under-represented in the Forum and elsewhere
    Rights to:
    Good support
    Health care
    Mental health
    To make choices
    Independent and well informed advocacy
    Treated equally
    Being listened to

    Health and Social Care Needs


    Do health and social care join up and work together?
    How much supported living is there? Can you go into supported living if you want to?
    Do you get the support you need to live a good life?
    Is the information you need in easy-read?
    What cuts have happened and how is this affecting you?

    How can we collect the stories?


    Facebook
    Video diaries
    Forum members will ask the people in their groups
    People will give you stories only if they trust you to do something useful with it.
