Our Vision for Adult Social Care
The South East Association of Directors of Adult Social Services (SE ADASS) is a partnership of the 18 directors of adult social care in the South East.
SE ADASS has two co-chairs, Alan Sinclair, Director of Adults’ Services and Health (DASS) at West Sussex County Council and Grainne Siggins, Director of People at Bracknell Forest Council.
Our vision is to provide the right care and support to people at the right time in the right place.
We want people to live fulfilled lives with support from family and friends within their communities and networks as well as being able to access high-quality, tailored care and support from caring, supportive, and enabling people in a way that suits their values and their lifestyle.
