Changing support and services

Through membership of self direct, we help providers to change the way support and services are provided and we connect providers with others who wish to do the same

There is a self direct member in every region of England and in Wales, supporting over 103,000 people

we work closely with providers of support and services to think through the issues and practical application of the ethical principles of  Self-Directed Support

we create the right setting that gives providers the freedom to share their concerns and hopes for the future

at the same time we create the opportunities to share experience and knowledge about what is already happening across the UK to give people who are looking for support the freedom to think about different ways to be supported and live their life in a way that's right for them
