| Abstract: | The original aim of the pilot was to allocate a personal budget to 90 people in North Essex and 90 in South Essex over a nine to 12 month period. However, progress has been condiderably slower than hoped, although take up of personal budgets is now increasing. MIME has therefore been asked to produce this interim report based on the evaluation data it has been possible to collect so far in order to inform decisions about the direction of the evaluation and related work. |

| Description: | MIME is a three year project set up in 2009 by all the local authority and primary care trust commissioners in Essex to engage directly with service users and carers specifically around establishing priorities for commissioning services. The project is jointly led by Anglia Ruskin University and ARW Mental Health Training & Consultancy - a service user organisation. Following training there will be opportunities for service users and carers to participate in a range of activities such as consultations, focus groups, service reviews and evaluations. For those who feel ready to gain valuable paid or voluntary work experience there will be further opportunities for training around evaluation and monitoring, facilitating groups etc. |
