Participation

PEOPLE FIRST – The people we support will always be our top priority

This is the first of our Organisational Values and in each Corporate Plan our first Strategic Aim always relates to the people we support. In order to put people first as an Organisation, we need to ensure that the voice of the people we support is heard in decision making at all levels within Positive Futures.

We do this through a number of strategies which have resulted in the establishment of a range of participation groups, including the Advisory Board and groups within Services and Projects and the involvement of the people we support in:

• The recruitment and selection of staff and in training delivery
• The functions of our Support Departments, for example, one day a week volunteer placement within Finance Department in Head Office
• Quality auditing of our Services
• Policy and Procedure development
• Corporate and strategic planning.
