Now entering its fourth year CIPFA Adult Social Care Benchmarking brings the successful approach we have used in our Finance clubs to Social care. The exercises have been well received by members and this year will build on the techniques developed in previous years to make them better still.

Please select individual clubs from left for further details.

Now entering its fourth year the CIPFA Children Looked After Benchmarking Club uses the old BVPI 51 definition to examine Children Looked After. Last year half the Authorities with social care responsibilities took part and this year we hope to build on this success.

This Club was first established in 2003, as a cooperative exercise between CIPFA and the National Association of Financial Assessment Officers. The intention was to combine NAFAO members' knowledge of the assessment process, and CIPFA's expertise in benchmarking, to produce useful and interesting comparisons of performance in this important and difficult service. In 2009 the club will be running in its 7th year.
