Signing up to a new future for social care

Local residents and council officials in Wokingham have drawn up a local Social Care Future Charter, which has won the support of the elected council. Read about their story.

Wokingham’s Social Care Future Charter charter was inspired by the Social Care Future movement. The charter has been developed with groups of residents and organisations with different experiences of social care in the borough, who were brought together at a launch event last summer to talk about what mattered to them.

Four residents from the Social Care Future Core Group, which has been established to support the delivery of the vision, came along to present the charter to council and talk about the importance of being heard and what this means to them.

We’ve made a short film about their experience of co-producing the charter.
