The It’s All About People Personalisation Podcast24 Kesä 2025

Ep 54. Shared Lives Week 2025

To celebrate Shared Lives Week 2025 (23 - 27 June) Alison from the It's All About People team talks to Katie Reilly, Development Worker with Shared Lives Lincolnshire and Carer, and Toni Ulyatt, Carer Recruitment for PSS (Person-Shaped Support) Shared Liv es, to explore what this approach really means for people across Lincolnshire.

Katie and Toni speak with such genuine passion about the difference Shared Lives is making and how it’s all about giving people real choice, personalised support, and a sense of belonging. It’s not a one-size-fits-all approach; it’s about truly seeing, understanding, and supporting each individual.

Katie also shares what being a Shared Lives Carer has meant for her, and her family, and how it’s not just life-changing for the person being supported, but for the carer too.

And for anyone keeping score with Our Shared Agreement Five Foundations bingo… Alison’s pretty sure all Five Foundations are ticked off in this podcast!

So, give this podcast a listen. You’ll come away inspired, uplifted, and maybe even ready to get involved yourself!

About Shared Lives

Shared Lives is a care and support service where an approved carer shares their home and family life with someone who needs support, offering accommodation, care, and companionship. It's an alternative to traditional care settings like care homes, providing a more integrated and community-focused approach. Shared Lives schemes match individuals with a carer based on their needs and preferences, offering varying levels of support, including full-time living, short breaks, or day support.
