The Easy Consultation Toolkit is designed to help short break providers and others with short break consultation.
Rather than duplicate existing work on the principles of consultation, this toolkit provides a set of adaptable, practical tools.
The tools have been tested in a range of short break settings, by people who commission and provide breaks, including local authorities, short break bureaus, carers’ centres, Community Health Care Partnerships and carer-led organisations. The consultations mostly involved carers, but the tools were also used to consult with other organisations, colleagues in different departments, strategic planning groups and so on.
