The report seeks approval to award two separate contracts for the provision of adult carers' support services to the successful bidders:
• Lot 1: Adult Carer's Assessment and Health and Wellbeing Service
• Lot 2: Adult Carers' Mental Health Support and Counselling Service
Additionally, there is a separate Lot 3 for Young Carers and Young Adult Carers Services, which was procured under the same exercise but decided upon separately.
Together, these services across the three Lots will support adult, young adult, and young carers from the Borough of Croydon using a 'whole family approach.' This approach recognizes the complex relationships where individuals can be both carers and cared for, introduces the No-Wrong-Door principles, and ensures a smooth transition for young carers.
