Ep 15. Direct Payments with Jenny and Sash

Alison is joined by Jenny, Practice Lead for Personalisation, Lincolnshire County Council, and Sash, and Expert-by-Experience, for a heartfelt chat about Direct Payments - and how they can give people more choice and control over their care. Together, they break down what Direct Payments actually are (think of it as a cash alternative to traditional services) and how they can help people shape support around what really matters to them. Sash shares her personal story, showing just how powerful it can be when care is built around your life - not the other way around. Because at the end of the day, it’s all about people.
