Description

GMCA was successful in multiple rounds of bidding for the programme and
has two current contracts delivering support to individuals on RSAP. RSAP 1 contract is due to end in March 2024 and RSAP 2 will end in March 2025. They are both delivered by the same provider and the GMCA would like to align the contracts so they both end in March 2025. DLUHC has confirmed revenue funding up to March 2025. This requires us to extend the RSAP 1 contract by one year.

Care Together Seed Funding Evaluation

Cambridgeshire County Council is commissioning an independent, proportionate evaluation of the seed-funded element of the Care Together programme. Care Together has several components, including community-led projects supported through small grants and wider activity designed to strengthen local support for older people. This evaluation focuses on the community-led projects that received seed funding. The evaluation will provide a high-level assessment of delivery and early outcomes across all district areas, supported by a small number of case studies and light-touch engagement with partners, participants and community organisations. It will explore the programme's contribution to prevention and early help, identify key learning, and highlight what works well across different community settings. Findings will inform future commissioning and support the development of a practical evaluation toolkit to guide monitoring and assessment for the 2026/27 Care Together funding round.

ASC25078 Direct Payment Support

The Council is seeking a supplier to deliver Direct Payment Support across two distinct Lots. A supplier can be awarded either a single Lot or both Lots o Lot 1 – Direct Payments Strategic Support Partner o Lot 2 – Direct Payment Finance Partner The Direct Payments Strategic Support Partner would be required to deliver strategic support to promote the growth of direct payments across Worcestershire and find suitable services to meet the needs of direct payment recipients. As part of Lot 1 the Strategic Support Partner would act as a micro brokerage service for Direct Payment recipients, advising what may be available to them in their area, both paid for and free services that might be available in the Voluntary Community Sector (VCS). The Supplier would also be required to advise social work staff where required. This wider remit could lead to closer working with the Communities Directorate, social prescribers and public health initiatives, supporting the Council to deliver the right service at the right time and the right price. There is evidence that this has worked well in other local authorities, especially with voluntary or service-user-led organisations. It is likely that the VCS will benefit from this approach as they have all the skills available to support people to maximise the potential of direct payments. As part of Lot 2, the Direct Payment Finance Partner would deliver a financial management service with elements within the contract covering support for the payments, including managed accounts and payroll for Personal Assistants (PAs). The Finance Partner would also be operating managed accounts on WCC’s behalf in line with new approval process and are required to employ PA’s to deliver cost-effective services.
