Abstract
The Individual Budgets (IBs) pilot programme tested new ways of giving people who use adult social care a greater say in the assessment of their needs; better understanding of how resources are allocated to meet those needs; and greater
flexibility in using resources to meet individual priorities. Amongst other findings, the evaluation of the pilot programme found that IBs presented a variety of challenges and opportunities for the practitioners involved in their implementation.
