In July 2024, BCP Cabinet and Full Council agree to support a four-year transformation programme called Fulfilled Lives, approving a total investment of £2.9m spanning the first three years.
The programme is made up of four inter-dependent projects:
How We Work
Short-Term Support
Self-Directed Support
Support At Home
The programme entered its delivery phase in January 2025 and progress reports were presented to Committee in January, March, July and September.
This report provides a further update for the programme overall to reflect the achievements to date, the current challenges, and the next steps to be taken over the following six months.
