description
Session that explores innovative use of technology by voluntary sector organisations. Carr Gomm uses individualised software to empower people with disabilities and communication impairments. ‘Click Go’ enables people to direct all aspects of their support and manage their own social care budget. Includem uses current accurate data to deal with risk in front line services sensibly, not to become risk averse and to achieve best outcomes for the young people it works with. Contributed by: CCPS
