Background: Kensington and Chelsea Social Council is the accountable body responsible for delivering the Self Care pilot on behalf of NHS West London Clinical Commissioning Group. The pilot is now in its second year and there are lessons learnt that will inform the way forward. The programme is aimed at helping patients aged 65+ with long-term conditions by supporting them to engage with self-care services, including those provided by the voluntary sector. Self-care helps to promote individual empowerment, increase confidence and help people to be better informed about the steps they can take to manage their personal health and wellbeing. Self Care is part of a wider integrated care initiative known as ‘My Care, My Way’ (MCMW). MCMW is a pioneering multi-organisation collaboration bringing together GP surgeries, NHS hospitals, social care services and local voluntary organisations to deliver support and care for local patients.
