The power of a personal health budget #myphbstory Alice suffered pain and discomfort for years until we were able to get her this fab ppod chair with her phb. Now it's comfy chillin all the way and much more able to cope with her pain.

As diagnosis happens so early it's often the parents that need the most support. My message is that while we can hope for a new treatment, we should also prepare kids to become happy, independent adults with DMD. A cure is not the only path to happiness. xitter.cf/NHSEnglandMidE/status/…

Mark is 37 years old. 4 yrs ago an assault left him with brain damage. He now lives at home thanks to his family managing his personal health budget @NHSPHB to employ 8 PAs who provide round the clock care. Hear his story: ow.ly/tZui30h1gwy

PHBs are mainly focussed on providing people choice and control in community services - supporting those for whom conventional routes are not working - multiple reasons by this might be the case

It wouldn't be expected to... That's core NHS service. PHBs are aimed at people with long term conditions who have ongoing support needs that could be met in a range of different ways. There seems to be a misunderstanding of what PHBs are for... @TLAP1 @Co4CC @NCAG17

Hi Sally our group will be specialising in PHB & DP support. We're aiming to provide our members with lived experience stories of how good PHBs can be. Would you be interested in writing a short blog for us to share your story?
