How can we support people to live independent and fulfilled lives in their community?

Overview

We are developing a needs assessment in relation to people who live in the community and may require support to remain independent.

We want to understand what helps people in Buckinghamshire to live independently, remain in their own homes and communities and live their most fulfilled lives.

This needs assessment supports the our Better Lives Strategy – the strategy for the future of adult social care in Buckinghamshire.

We would like to hear the views of all residents, including carers.

Please consider any support, advice, or assistance (practical, emotional, financial etc.) you may have received from people, services, or organisations when answering the survey.

How to get involved

What happens next

The information gathered will help us to understand what support is needed. The overall themes in the responses received from residents will be shared with key teams inside and outside of the council to better develop the future shape of services.

Privacy

We will use the information you provide here only for this survey. We will store the information securely in line with data protection laws and will not share or publish any personal details. For more information about data and privacy, please see our Privacy Policy.
