Description
Wokingham Borough Council's Adult Social Care Strategy 2020-2025, VCS Strategy 2020-2025, Carers Strategy 2020-2025 outline the importance of services for unpaid carers that provide support and guidance.
This procurement will deliver on all four major priorities of Wokingham Borough Council's Carers Strategy 2020-2025 as well as the wider priority to commission services that deliver quality and value for money. This supports the demand management of adult social care and injects increased funding into the services that provide support and guidance available to carers.
Across Wokingham, there exists a range of critical services that seek to enable carers to access the support they need and to be recognised and valued in their community. This procurement will ensure security of funding for two years (with the possibility of extending for up to a further two); for carers support services in the borough; and for reinvesting in prevention services to prevent, reduce and delay the need for statutory care services.
