C4EO Case Study – The Swindon Life Programme
This C4EO case study focuses on the development of the Life programme by Swindon
Borough Council and its partners. The programme focuses on families with chronic
and multiple needs who are intensive users of public services and resources, supporting
them to build the capacity to change their lives.
The Life programme provides 'a catalyst for fundamental change in paradigm and a
shift in the way public services are delivered in Swindon'. It has led to a challenging
but very different way of working, the creation of a new set of values and beliefs
which are now embedded in the work culture, and has provided the catalyst for broad,
structural and systemic change across all agencies which will be fully implemented
by 2012.
