Key information for social care providers

Bristol is committed to making radical and urgent change through our programme for adult social care transformation, “Better Lives: Improving outcomes for adults in Bristol.”

Our vision is set out in our Overarching Market Position Statement “Working Together for Better Lives”

We intend to work transparently with all providers, existing and new to Bristol, ensuring quality and encouraging innovation in line with our vision.

Delivering Better Lives is about partnership, and we will be developing and updating our approaches in line with feedback from people with support needs, their families and networks, service providers and other partners.

Working Together to deliver Better Lives at Home

The development of quality supported living options and Extra Care Housing is core to our Vision. To take this forward we need to work with housing developers and providers as well as care and support providers.

As our plans in this area develop you will be able to see them on Better Lives at Homepage ( Content being developed).
