The plan has been developed in response to the changes taking place in our environment, and the learning that has occurred in our Association and society in general over the last number of years. This learning has led to a greater welcome for the participation of people with disabilities in community life; has focused more on the contribution a person can make and less on personal limitations, and has clearly identified social inclusion as a goal for enriching our communities and the lives of people with disabilities. Our changing environment has also brought a welcome emphasis on the rights of people with disabilities to be treated as equal citizens, and to exercise choice in the services that they receive. As we face into the future, our new environment will require us to increase our responsiveness to the changing needs and wishes of service users and families, we will need to engage in a continuous cycle of service improvement, and our understanding of our role in the lives of people with disabilities will become more defined – our role is to serve. I am confident that the Strategic Plan addresses the challenges that we face, and that the dedication of our management and staff will ensure that its ambitious aims are realised for the benefit of our service users and their families. Joe Connolly Chairman 5 _____________________________________________________________________________________________ WALKINSTOWN ASSOCIATION STRATEGIC PLAN 2007-2012 INTRODUCTION The need for our Association to renew its mission and engage in strategic planning has been influenced by a variety of factors. The task of facilitating social inclusion with limited resources; the importance of supporting service users in exercising their rights; the challenge of providing individualised services; and the need to recruit and retain staff of the highest quality, were all significant issues. Demands from the statutory environment in which we operate have also influenced the plan. These require us to deliver services based on person centred plans; to actively support advocacy by and on behalf of service users; and, to meet independently evaluated service quality standards in the not too distant future. While each of these changes addresses a specific issue in service provision, they all support one particular development – the empowerment of each service user to choose the services that he or she receives. This development represents a significant shift in decision-making power from the organisation to service users and their advocates. It will require flexible and creative responses at service delivery level, and the design of services in accordance with service user choices is likely to result in altered roles and responsibilities among staff. This new environment requires a strategy, which acknowledges that the level of change will impact on all areas of the Association. Adjustments in organisational policies, procedures, systems and practices will be required to ensure that they support the goals of individualised plans; and a process of organisational re-design will emerge as service users needs and chosen goals are placed at the centre of organisation strategic development. In addition to the above, the issues of supporting ageing service users, coping with challenging behaviour, and providing services for individuals with complex needs will remain a daily feature of service provision in the association. This Strategic Plan is designed to address the challenges that we face. It is informed by statements of organisation mission and beliefs that will guide our decision-making and activities, and which will ensure that our services are based on firm foundations of positive values and person centredness. Ultimately, the achievement of our strategic goals will be dependent upon the willing commitment of organisation staff; on the basis of our past achievements, I have no doubt that this commitment will be forthcoming. Joe Mason Chief Executive Officer 6 _____________________________________________________________________________________________ WALKINSTOWN ASSOCIATION STRATEGIC PLAN 2007-2012 OUR SERVICES HISTORY Walkinstown Association was founded in 1967 by a group of parents and friends in response to a need for community based services for people with learning disabilities. The first service opened was a social club originally known as the Sacred Heart Club. This service operated from a number of local halls such as Walkinstown Youth Club and the Sisters of Charity school hall. In 1979 the Association received a donation of a pre-fabricated building from St. Mary’s hospital in the Phoenix Park. This was moved to a site at 1 Long Mile Road provided on a long- term lease by the Sisters of Charity. Many of the people who attended the social club had no other service and in response to that need in 1981 the Association opened its first day service. This service provided eight places and was staffed by a full time manager and a team of local volunteers. The service was funded by local fundraising, which included an annual wheelchair push from Dublin to Tralee. In 1990 due to financial difficulties St John of God Hospitaller Services took over the Day Service. However the Social Club remained under the control of Walkinstown Association. In 1992 due to rationalisation St John of Gods closed the service. Due to the Associations continued commitment to community-based services the Day Service reopened in 1993 with a grant of £25,000 from the National Lottery. This grant enabled the provision of eleven places and the employment of a full time manager with further staff provided by FAS under their Community Employment scheme. In 1994 the Association received recognition as a service provider under Section 65 of the 1953 Health Act. This recognition enabled the Association secure regular grants and saw its income rise from £10,773 in 1993 to £64,308 in 1994. This regular funding allowed the expansion of the Day Service to fourteen places and for the first time put the Association on a firm financial footing. In 1995 the Association opened its first community residential house at 76 Tyrconnell Road, Inchicore in partnership with the Eastern Health Board. Over the following five years the Association expanded its Day Service to twenty two places and opened a Home Support Service. In 2001 a Home Support service tailored to the needs of young adults who were out of service was opened with funding from the Northern Area Health Board. In 2001 after a decade of political lobbying the Association received funding to build a new Centre at 1 Long Mile Road on the site kindly donated by the Sisters of Charity. During construction the Associations Day Service moved to the Scout Den on Bunting Road. In June 2001 the new Centre opened and between then and 2006 the Day Service expanded to provide forty six places. The Association also continued to expand its residential services with the purchase of 40b Dargle Wood, Knocklyon in 2002, 37 Orlagh Park, Knocklyon in 2004 and 27a Walnut Close, Kingswood Heights in 2005. 7 _____________________________________________________________________________________________ WALKINSTOWN ASSOCIATION STRATEGIC PLAN 2007-2012 The organisation has undergone considerable expansion and current services including: Day Services To provide a tailored holistic service that promotes the growth and development of adults with intellectual disability through the provision of appropriate training, education, social, recreational and occupational programmes. To provide a comprehensive system of services that enable individuals to exercise self- determination, be independent, be productive, and be integrated and included in all facets of community life. Residential Service The Association provides residential services in five homes in the Knocklyon, Orwell, Inchicore, and Kingswood areas of Dublin. A sixth home will open in 2008. The objectives of the residential service is the integration and inclusion of service

    Suburban and Urban Housing in the Twentieth Century

    Suburban and urban housing in the twentieth century RUTH MCMANUS* Geography Department, St Patrick’s College, Drumcondra [Accepted 01 February 2011. Published 19 April 2011.] Abstract Ireland experienced dramatic political, social and economic change in the twentieth century, of which the shift from a majority rural to a majority urban population was one of the most notable. These changes are refl ected in the nature and form of the built environment. In this essay, the evolution of urban and suburban housing during Ireland’s fi rst urban century is considered. Existing patterns of unplanned middle- class suburban expansion were supplemented, from the 1920s, by a programme of planned working-class suburbanization. State intervention thus impacted on the location and form of new housing estates, while layouts owed much to the early British town-planning movement. High levels of owner-occupation in Ireland, the combined result of government policy and individual preference, were also refl ected in a preference for particular housing forms. The predominance of the standardised three- or four-bedroom, semi-detached or detached house, was not challenged until the 1990s when there was a surge in apartment provision, largely driven by tax incen- tives. Changing norms in terms of housing size, facilities and design were shaped by the standards adopted by government and local authorities, as well as to the pressures of the speculative building process. Introduction and The place called home, in an Irish context, changed little in the course of the twentieth context century, and yet it also changed dramatically. This apparent contradiction can be explained by the fact that, while the typical home at the beginning of the twenty-fi rst century remains the single-family detached or semi-detached dwelling, its location and context are now rather different.
