They are built for anyone working across social care and support — social workers, social care workers, AMHPs, BIAs, supervisors, managers, safeguarding practitioners, NHS mental health colleagues and voluntary sector partners. If your work involves reflection, assessment or difficult decisions, the tools are designed for you.

While we build and pilot the DCC-i Portal, the Interactive Tools Library is free for individual practitioners. Just create an account to get started. Organisations can also explore partner and team access.

You can read about the tools without an account. To use them in your practice, create a free individual account — it takes a minute and there is no payment required during the pilot.

Practitioners use them in supervision to structure reflective conversations, during assessments to support professional reasoning, in team discussions to explore complex cases, and as CPD follow-up to embed learning.

Risk, safeguarding and self-neglect; mental health and mental capacity; person-centred and relationship-based practice; neurodiversity, diversity and inclusion; legal literacy and professional decision-making; and co-production, lived experience and advocacy.

Individual access is free during the pilot while we build alongside practitioners. We will always be open and clear with members about access before anything changes.
