With the reform of adult social care once again being considered – this time by the Casey Commission – this session builds on lessons from the work of IMPACT, the UK centre for implementing evidence in adult social care. It looks at what we mean by evidence, why lived experience is an important form of evidence in its own right, and how to get evidence of what works implemented in practice. In the process, it draws out key lessons from IMPACT’s work across the four nations of the UK that could form the building blocks of a future National Care Service.
Jon Glasby trained as a social worker, and is now Professor of Health and Social Care at the University of Birmingham and Director of IMPACT. In his spare time, he is a Non-Executive Director of an NHS Trust and of a local authority children’s services. In 2022, he was an advisor to the House of Lords Adult Social Care Committee.
This hybrid event is run by Green Templeton’s long-running Care Initiative, led by Professor Mary Daly.
After the talk there will be a short drinks reception in the Stables Bar.
