Recreating Social Capital: Intergenerational Programmes and Bridging Networks: An English Model-Phase 1
This paper describes the establishment of a pilot neighbourhood-based intergenerational programme and its evaluation in one town in England. It sets this in both the context of English inter-generational programmes involving schools and of English social policy. The latter is currently influenced by Putnam's concept of social capital. It argues that intergenerational programmes of all kinds are likely to be useful contributions to the development…
Where We Are Now with Intergenerational Developments: An English Perspective
Intergenerational programs are beginning to burgeon in England. They are relatively recent in their development. The systemic absence of connectiveness between policy developments and services relating to older people and those relating to children and young people is identified. The key strategic players are described. Questions about future developments and research are discussed
Prioritising home care needs: Research with older people from three ethnic minority community groups
This paper draws on research with three minority ethnic community groups in Manchester. The aim of the study was to examine and prioritise social care needs. Focus groups were chosen as a way of beginning discussion about these issues. The findings suggest that some quality issues are relevant to all communities of older people. However, some were specific to the community groups. This paper describes some of the lessons learned about running foc…
Using focus groups to seek the views of patients dying from cancer about the care they receive
PURPOSE: The prime purpose of the study was to investigate whether focus groups were a practical way of seeking the views of dying people and whether the information collected added to that collected by more established methods. DESIGN: A sample frame of Macmillan nurse patients was collated from which three cluster samples were randomly selected to participate in focus groups. The focus groups were structured with an experienced facilitator and …
Involving residents in quality specification
The extension of user involvement in different aspects of service delivery in health and social care has been a central element of care in the community policy. Purchasers and providers of such services for older people have been exploring ways of tailoring services to meet individual need and ensure that the quality of the service reflects user preference rather than service-provider requirements. This article describes a project involving resid…

Issues in the Assessment of the Health Status, Needs, and Treatment of the Mentally and Physically Handicapped
The importance of information for evaluating the health status, needs, and progress of the mentally and physically handicapped has been consistently argued. However, the varied nature of handicapping conditions, often aggravated by the presence of multiple conditions, the extended periods of treatment, the diverse professional groups involved, and the multiple uses and users of data pose difficult problems for uniform data collection. For these h…
