“We have all the evidence and many of the steps we need – lets work together for all our ‘Good Lives’.
We welcome the Reimagining Care Commission report and the principles of trust, empathy, inclusion and human flourishing. The inquiry report calls for a ‘fundamental and comprehensive redesign of care and support’ that includes those principles.
For many people with learning disabilities and their families there are extra barriers to them living their Good Lives but the 3 actions the inquiry suggests including rethinking attitudes would go a long way to the shared vision of flourishing, gloriously ordinary or Good Lives.”
Representative body members Scott Watkin and Kate Chate

In December 2022 we saw ‘a gloriously ordinary life’ report from the House of Lords Adult Social Care Committee.
On the 24th January 2023 the Reimaging care report was published.

The reports talk about some of the core changes that we want to see happen in adult social care and how we get there.

Both say that adult social care is a service that should and can enable people to live Good Lives.
