LDDF Revenue Money
The Government gives Partnership boards money each year to help them to make Valuing People happen locally.
The Government's priorities for the use of this funding are:
- Strengthening advocacy
- Person centred approaches
- Leadership development
- Day services modernisation
- NHS campus reprovision
- Supported Living approaches for people living with older family carers
- Increasing the number of people with learning disabilities in paid work
The Partnership Board also spends money on the things it thinks are important in Southampton, and which people with learning disabilitites have talked about.Each year we tell the Governement how we have spent the money to help make things better.The Valuing People website has more inofmration about this.
How the Government is saying money will be shared in 2008/2009
In Southampton the Partnership Board agrees the bids for spending the Learning disability Development Fund in March of each year. It reviews the spending during the year and agrees how to spend any left over money in the autumn.
Each bid comes through the Local Implementation Group lead for the area and is put in by that person to make sure that all the bids meet the objectives of “Valuing People”.
LDDF spend for 2006 to 2007 - £193,000
