To achieve that we organise meditation and “getting active” sessions, pull together for team building and volunteering days and promote open and inclusive communication.

We have a clear career progression pathway to give you opportunities to grow and flourish. Despite the challenges that Adult Social Care has faced within the last 12 months, our approach in Buckinghamshire has not been to take shelter and wait for the storm to pass. Instead, we have chosen totransform and restructure Adult Social Care so we can respond to a crisis as well as build for the future. We have created more roles in Social Work and Occupational Therapy; we are adapting to work much more closely with the community andsupport people near to where they live; we have developed a newcareer progression framework to encourage staff ambition and development; Focus on improving people’s well-being
