Not to be confused with the businessman of the same name, chairman of Bwin.Party Digital EntertainmentSimon Duffy (born 13 February 1965) was formerly the chief executive of the social enterprise company In Control. He is a pioneer of deinstitutionalisation in the United Kingdom and was awarded the Albert Medal in 2008 for his work on "social innovation". His training is as a philosopher. He worked in social care in the voluntary sector in south London and is now based at the Centre for Welfare Reform in Sheffield.[1] In Control worked chiefly with people with learning difficulties, but he has since developed his ideas in respect of personal health budgets[2] a concept which he claims to have invented.[3] He countered accusations that public health budgets were wasting National Health Service money on fripperies like horse riding, art classes, massage, and a summer house by saying that the whole point was to spend money in less conventional ways. He argues that personalisation is "consistent with a social work based on social justice", though his approach has been criticised as "consistent with a neoliberal social and economic agenda".[4] He has worked with local authorities in Glasgow where he set up an organisation called Inclusion Glasgow in 1996 to help residents of Lennox Castle hospital to "escape" into their own homes using what were then called Individual Service Funds.[5] He is very critical of the approach taken by the Department for Work and Pensions to supporting disabled people, and says the department should be closed down.[6] He is an opponent of austerity, saying that disabled people on low incomes face cuts four times larger than average[7] and that disabled people have been "hit 19 times harder than the average person" under the coalition government.[8] The Centre for Welfare Reform's publication People, Places, Possibilities, written by Ralph Broad in 2015 has been widely discussed as a contribution to the debate about the future of social work in the UK[9] and Duffy has been a significant contributor.[10] Publications
