The Role of Social Capital in Supporting Transformation

George Julian- Director RIPFA

‘Care must again be about reinforcing personal and community resilience, reciprocity and responsibility, to prevent and postpone dependency and promote greater independence and choice’ (DH, 2010)

Clear evidence for two types of outcomes•Effectiveness: improvement of wellbeing•Cost-effectiveness: from given resources, achieve better outcomes for service users, carers and those at risk of needing support

Building community capacity is effective and cost-effective

•Individual level (e.g. trust, independence, participation, reduced isolation)•Community/societal level (e.g. neighbourhood improvements, inclusion, finding employment)
