We launched the Support Solutions Briefing in the summer of 2006 as a free publication for the sector, dealing with the key sector issues of the day. The Briefing was incredibly well-received. Its circulation rose from 0 to several thousand in a matter of months. OK, it was free and delivered electronically to your email inbox but serious people don't read rubbish and we were often pleased to see copies of Briefing articles on the desks of potential and existing clients when went to see them. The Briefing is in electronic document format because of its versatility. It is ecologically sensible because there are no environmental costs associated with distribution and postage, paper, ink and equipment overheads. We've redesigned the visual impression of The Briefing but we've maintained the same informed and incisive writing style and kept the same sense of what matters to people involved in housing support & social care. A consultancy like Support Solutions should contribute with others to develop thinking within the sector and to help shape its response to the changing environment in which it operates, for example, in relation to the Personalisation agenda. We do this in the day to day work we do with clients and we also do this through The Briefing.

We'll be developing our focus on housing benefit and revenue in general; local area agreements; tendering; supporting people; the QAF; individual budgets and the latest developments in thinking on the personalisation agenda, personal care at home and some additonal articles of interest so watch this space!
