Involvement and co-production

Giving people opportunities to have a say on adult social care

Devon County Council is committed to enabling people who receive our support to have their say in the planning, commissioning and provision of services, whenever possible.

We have a number of different ways of engaging with people who use services and carers and the wider public, so we learn from their experience of adult social care.
