Thank you to Dr Clodagh O’Reilly (founder, Social Enterprise Solutions Ireland) for the invitation to speak with her students at UCD Lochlann Quinn School of Business and share my experiences of leading a social enterprise with the next generation of social entrepreneurs.

It was a pleasure to share the platform with Caroline Gardner from We Make Good and to engage with such a welcoming and enthusiastic group of students.

This is a really worthwhile survey about the future of home care.

The ATTUNE project, led by researchers at RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences and funded by the Department of Health and the Health Research Board, is exploring how home support services can better meet the needs of people aged 65 and over. Its findings will help inform future home support policy and services across Ireland.

The future of home care matters to all of us. Getting support right can make an enormous difference to an older person’s independence, dignity and ability to remain in their own home. It is essential that decisions about these services are informed by the people who use them and understand, through everyday experience, what works and what needs to change.

Please take the time to complete the survey to help inform policy and survey for those who need home support.
The survey is voluntary and anonymous. It is for people over 65 who have experience of receiving home support in Ireland. A family carer or someone they trust can complete it on their behalf.

The research team is also inviting participants to take part in a 30-minute interview about their experiences. Anyone interested can contact [email protected]. Interview participants will receive a shopping voucher as a thank you.
