Blick Studios

4 week Squarespace Workshop led by Ronan Lunney from Two Digs Studios. Anyone can build a website with Squarespace, that’s the joy and the curse of it. In fact, it practically designs itself in some cases, but when new to this, it can be hard to know where to start and how to correctly visualise what’s needed for your website to have a positive impact on your project. But first understanding what you need your website to do and say in a written sense is paramount to its success. To define this means asking some hard truths before you’ve even clicked a mouse. Over this 4 week Squarespace introduction we will look at how to properly define what you need to say and how this will help define the visual outcome of your website. Taking it in small steps, working together and with a little bit of independent, intuitive learning, we will build a unique and thoughtful website that will maintain a strong visual consistency that represents your idea, business or concept for the world to see. Full course costs £80.

The assessment and eligibility process is one of the most important elements of the care and support system. The assessment is the key interaction between the local authority and an individual. It should not just be seen as a gateway to care and support, but should be a critical intervention in its own right, which can help people to understand their situation and access support when they require it.

Information and advice is fundamental to enabling people, carers and families to take control of, and make well-informed choices about, their care and support and how they fund it. Not only does information and advice help to promote people’s wellbeing by increasing their ability to exercise choice and control, it is also a vital component of preventing or delaying people’s need for care and support
