Choose your option
We will help you identify or review the best commissioning and delivery option for
Shared Lives in your area through a thorough options appraisal.
This appraisal will include the pros, considerations and typical costs for each option and help you to define an approach that works for your local area.
Build your case
We will help you co-develop an evidence and cost-based case for establishing Shared Lives, tailored to your local area’s potential and challenges.
Drawing on Shared Lives Plus national and local cost and demand data, we can provide a typical comparative analysis of Shared Lives versus alternative provision.
Develop your plan
We will help you work across teams to produce a strategic plan for establishing and embedding a new Shared Lives offer in your area.
This will support you to develop a roadmap of the needed steps and mechanisms to establishing a scheme.
