Solihull Council in meeting various responsibilities under the Care Act 2014 and the Mental Capacity Act 2005, seeks to support residents to access ‘money management support’ where the people lack capacity to manage their own financial affairs.

The Council wants to commission a Money Management Service that covers the provision of appointee and Property and Affairs deputy for people ("Clients") without suitable family or friends to provide such support to ensure that their financial matters are maintained and protected to improve their health and wellbeing and promote independence.
