Personalisation - what does it mean?
Created: 26/02/2010
"Personalisation" of public services (giving people the choice, responsibility and control of the services that they use) is increasing in the UK with more local authorities looking at this new model of delivery. Personalisation has the potential to bring both positive and negative impacts, but it is clear that it will change the way that service providers and their clients work with each other. To find out more about this issue here are links to two articles which explain what it is, the challenges and issues and how it might shape public service delivery in the future. http://www.adviceuk.org.uk/_uploads/documents/Personalisationbriefing.pdf http://www.acevo.org.uk/Page.aspx?pid=1541
