The People Study

The Personalisation Forum Group is proud to be part of the People study and will shortly be represented at the studies National Advisory Panel.


The people study is a three-year project focuses on understanding the manner in which personalisation (and its practical implementation in four Local Authority areas), impacts on the lives of individuals with severe mental illness, and the organisations that support them.
A case study approach is used to gather rich data, involving the individuals themselves, their carers and practitioners.
The study has three key objectives:
· To gain a clear understanding of how personalisation is shaping the lives of people with severe mental illness


We will influence national policy by producing online resources, guidance and strategies for stakeholders and key policy-decision makers.

· To understand how organisations and care staff are adapting to work with people affected by severe mental illness, within personalised models of health and social care
· To understand the role of carers in assisting people with severe mental illness to negotiate the challenges and opportunities offered by personalisation.
