The Act received Royal Assent and became law on 1 May 2014
The Act was implemented in April 2016

7. Introduction
These initial training resources are the first in a suite of learning materials to support the effective implementation of the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act
The learning materials are based on tried and tested resources already in use within Blaenau Gwent and Caerphilly
These are the initial awareness raising resources – further specialised learning materials looking at key themes, service areas and parts of the Act are also available on the Information and Learning Hub.

8. In groups – discuss what you think are the key themes of the Act
The resources are designed to support the facilitator to deliver a range of short, introductory workshops
The resources also allow the facilitator to extend or tailor their delivery method to the needs of specific audiences
The facilitator will need a basic understanding of the principles of the Act and facilitation skills to manage the discussions of the specific groups
Generic briefing – without activities.
Awareness session – using the range of activities.
