About the Business
Afterwards, the Council tendered to transfer services to an independent, not-for-profit, user-led organisation with an Independent Living Centre (ILC) model. A project group was formed with representatives from the London Borough of Bexley, voluntary organisations (with an interest in disability issues) and people with disabilities who used local services. Following this, a new independent organisation was created to provide services for people with disabilities.
The detailed work was undertaken by a multi-agency project team, which involved various partners and service users. As a result, Inspire was formed in November 2004. Contract negotiation took place between the period from November 2004 and February 2005 in order to transfer 35 staff to Inspire, together with the Council's physical & sensory impairment services and Direct Payment Support Services for all service user groups, by 1 March, 2005.
