What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Carers Support Service is a key component of Lincolnshire County Council's response to

its duties under the Care Act (2014). The Care Act and the Children and Families Act (2014)

give carers full legal recognition, placing their needs and rights on an equal footing to those

for whom they care. The Acts place a general duty on councils to promote the wellbeing of

carers, and to prevent, reduce and delay the onset of their needs by the provision of support

and joined up, whole family, whole system approaches.

The purpose of the service is to support the health and well-being of adult carers and parent

carers and to sustain their caring role. In doing so, the service aims to prevent, delay and

reduce the onset of carer need and/or escalation into formal care services.
