These ‘six principles’ set out the basis of good person-centred, community focused health and care.

The challenge we have risen to is changing the mindset of health and social care services, which will preserve your freedom and help you in true partnership.

- care and support is person-centered: personalised, coordinated, and empowering
- services are created in partnership with citizens and communities
- focus is on equality and narrowing inequalities
- carers are identified, supported and involved
- voluntary, community and social enterprise and housing sectors are involved as key partners and enablers
- volunteering and social action are recognised as key enablers.
