  • Between 1996 and 2012 Ruth had 129 different

interactions with public-sector agencies. From running a successful business with her first husband she deteriorated to having ill health, her children removed and being entirely dependent on the public purse.

  • Ruth was taken on by one of the new ‘Wellbeing’ teams

piloting locality working; she is now in suitable accommodation with her children and her situation has stabilised.

What matters to people in these systems?


  • “Just talk about what matters to me”
  • “Understand my specific concerns, don’t use a

menu of services to solve problems you think I have.”

  • “Feeling valued – feeling I contribute – social

involvement”

  • “Be transparent in your work”
  • “Wanting to be independent”
  • “A key person – one point of contact”

Different Thinking - Different Solutions

  • We start from the demand in a locality, and

design public services to meet that demand.

  • This is not the same as changing local authority

boundaries.

  • This is not the same as ‘co-location’ - co-location is

necessary but not sufficient.

  • This is radical redesign of the entire public

service from first principles - restructure across existing organisations based on knowledge of local demand.

  • Common Purpose, Common Measures, Common

Principles

System and Practice

We cannot expect individuals working at the frontline to practice differently, if the system is not designed to encourage and support this.

We must change the system first.
