What is Person Centred Planning?

Derived mainly from the early work in building circles of support, Person centred planning is alive and active, always ensuring the focus person is central and in control. Planning is flexible, setting no limits to the person’s wants, needs and dreams for their life. 

In person centred planning the process, as well as the plan which is created, is owned and controlled by the person (and sometimes their closest family and friends). As there are no prescribed forms, tick boxes or checklists, the resulting plan of support is totally individual. It creates a comprehensive portrait of who the person is and what they want to do with their life and brings together all of the people who are important to the person including family, friends, neighbours, support workers and other professionals involved in their lives.
