| Annotation | Following the UK Study of Abuse and Neglect of Older People, (O'Keeffe et al, 2007) Comic Relief funded 15 projects across England and Wales to enable them to trial different methods to combat elder abuse. In 2007, Daybreak received three years funding to pilot the use of family group conferences for this age group across Hampshire, Southampton and Portsmouth. This trial as it draws to a close, is being evaluated for effectiveness and value. Hampshire County Council are currently working with Daybreak to expand the provision of family group conferences to all vulnerable adults where there are safeguarding concerns, particularly within the context of personalisation and self-directed support.
