A Life Plan can help you decide; where you are going to live, what help you will need, what you want to be doing with your time and what your hopes and dreams are for the future.

We can help you have a Life Plan day so that you and the people who are close to you, can talk about your life and the things that are important to you.

How you take part in your Life Plan day and who comes is up to you.

– Your life so far
– Your hobbies and interests
– Your skills and talents
– The special people in your life
– Your future home
– How you want to be supported
– How you want to spend your time in the future: a job, college, volunteering
– What you need to stay healthy, safe and happy
– Your hopes and dreams

We write down everything people have said at your Life Plan day. We might also use information that has already been collected like your support plans.You will get a copy to keep and give to people who are helping you move. Your Life Plan will help your Social Worker and the other people helping you, to start working together to make your future plans happen.

Having a Life Plan doesn’t mean that things will change quickly. This is because some things take a long time, like getting the right housing and support. Your Life Plan might be about things you want for your future, but if you have a Life Plan then people know what you want to happen because it has all been written down by you and the people close to you.
