Billy Yappa
Working in conjunction with the Mid Devon Person Centred Planning
Project a short performance was devised by members to portray
the concept of person centred planning. The performance Billy
Yappa uses a TV chat show format to tell the story of Jonathan
who needs help to find some direction in his life. Billy Yappa’s special guests, people within Jonathan’s
circle of support, focus on finding solutions to help improve
the quality of Jonathan’s life and to ensure he is able
to achieve the things he wants to do.
What is person centred planning?
Person Centred Planning puts the person at the centre of planning
for their lives.
Person centred Planning is about:
Listening to and learning about what people want from their
lives.
Helping people to think about what they want now and in the
future.
Family, friends, professionals and services working together
with the person to make this happen.
