As part of Next Steps to put People at the Heart of Care, we announced we were establishing an innovation and improvement unit to develop and define clear priorities for innovation and improvement across adult social care.

As part of the unit, the government is setting out a list of priorities for innovation and scaling in care and support. This document sets out these priorities.

Each priority presents an example of a model or approach that local authorities could adopt, accompanied by a case study.
