AnnotationThis guide is primarily for staff and managers in organisations providing housing-related support services, and sets out how opportunities for user involvement can be developed. Although also intended for local authority providers, it is based on examples and learning from independent sector organisations. Chapters examine the following: individual needs and lifestyle; day-to-day user participation in service delivery; user involvement in service evaluation and development, staff recruitment and training, and development of policies; involving users in service management; and developing a strategy and practice for effective user involvement.
