Valuing People

Jenny Anderson

"Hello and welcome to Yorkshire & Humber Valuing People. I’m Jenny Anderton, the programme lead for Valuing People in the Yorkshire & Humber region.

The Valuing People Team was established to provide national leadership on the delivery of the Valuing People White Paper and has been recently updated with the publication of Valuing People Now (DH 2009). You can find copies of these by visiting our resource page."


Valuing People Now Key Priorities for 2009/10

  • Leadership and effective partnership boards
  • Improving health
  • Increasing the number of people with a learning disability into paid employment
  • Increasing the number of housing opportunities
  • Making sure person centred planning is happening for people

Yorkshire and Humber have also decided to make advocacy a regional priority.

You can find out more about these priorities and the work we are doing here on this web site.

Please don’t hesitate to contact us for more information and I hope you find this site helpful.
