Description

Peterborough City Council currently commission three separate services which deliver support to carers across Peterborough. The service currently provides support to carers of all ages, ensuring that carers are recognised, valued, and supported around: • Their own health and wellbeing as a priority • Fulfilling their educational and employment potential • Maximising their income • Information and support in case of emergencies As a result, carers can maintain their caring role for longer, delaying the need for individuals requiring higher cost and longer-term adult social care. The current contract is split into 3 lots. Each Lot deals with a different aspect of the carers service. This is broken down as follows: • Lot 1: Support to Adult Carers • Lot 2: Support for Young Carers • Lot 3: Support for Carers of People with Mental Health Conditions
