Building on, and following on from, the Call for Evidence last year, the first phase of development is now complete. The DHSC and ΢΢²ÝÊÓƵ partnership benefited from invaluable support and collaboration with TLAP who developed the underpinning values, BILD who developed the Practice Leadership role, the Expert Consultation Group who informed the development throughout and of course, members of the adult social care sector, including the workforce and people who draw on care and support, who generously gave their time and insight.
