Local Account
The Local Account is the new Adult Social Care Strategy for 2024. The Local Account outlines our vision for adult social care in Nottinghamshire: we aim to ensure that every person in Nottinghamshire can reside comfortably in their own home, surrounded by loved ones and meaningful connections. This vision draws inspiration from Social Care Future.
The Local Account, which has been developed in collaboration with the Our Voice co-production group and staff, highlights positive initiatives in Nottinghamshire’s adult social care. It features contributions and stories from individuals who draw on care and support, reflecting their experiences. Additionally, the Local Account outlines our adult social care priorities for 2024.
