Sinossi

The number of disability related support services controlled and run by disabled people themselves has increased significantly in the UK and internationally over the past forty years. As a result, greater user involvement in service provision and delivery is a key priority for many western Governments. This book provides the first comprehensive review and analysis of these developments in the UK.

Review

This should be essential reading for decision-makers, politicians and, not least, disabled people with an interest in their own futures. Community Care

Independent futures provides a timely and critical evaluation of user controlled services, identifying principle forces that inhibit their development and explaining the implications for social policy. It presents essential evidence and analysis for policy makers working within health, social care, education, housing and equality. It will also be a vital text for both undergraduate and postgraduate students in the social sciences and government and politics. Jane Campbell, Chair, Social Care Institute for Excellence (SCIE)

... the book remains a powerful summary of the existing state of user-led services and a challenge to all involved to support user-led services in future. Professional Social Work
