The Carers Support Service is a key component of Lincolnshire County Council's response to

and joined up, whole family, whole system approaches.
The purpose of the service is to support the health and well-being of adult carers and parent
carers and to sustain their caring role. In doing so, the service aims to prevent, delay and
reduce the onset of carer need and/or escalation into formal care services.
The contract will start on 1 October 2022 and will be for an initial 3 years with options to
extend for a further 2 years.
