Flintshire County Council Social Services are looking to recommission its Unpaid Carers Services (including Young Carers).
A carer is broadly someone who provides or intends to provide care and support to a family member, partner or friend who needs help because of their age, physical or mental illness, or disability; this does not include someone who is paid or employed to carry out that role, or someone who is volunteering (Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act).
The local Authority has a number of duties under the Act, terms of supporting carers.
- To identify carers that provide or intend to provide care for an adult or disabled child.
- A duty to assess a carer where there appears to be a need for support, regardless of the level of needs or resources. The assessment will focus on ‘what matters’ to the carer and the carers needs in their own right.
- A carer is entitled to a joint assessment with the cared for if it is considered beneficial and there is consent from both.
- A duty to meet the needs of the carer following an assessment, depending on eligibility.
- The carer’s assessment should be reviewed annually or when there is a significant change in circumstances.
- Provide advocacy support for carers.
Flintshire Social Services delivers a wide range of services for carers, both in-house and commissioned through external third sector providers. Each service has a defined specification with a set amount of funding to deliver services to specific groups of carers within Flintshire.
Applications would be welcomed for single and multiple lots, from individual organisations and consortia. It is anticipated that the contract start date would be 1st April 2025 for a period of 5 years. Please see individual specifications for further information on duration and pricing.

Working in partnership, Flintshire County Council and Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board are looking to re-commission our service that supports carers of individuals requiring Continuing Health Care (CHC) support.
Carers caring for a person with complex needs or continuing health care needs require a recognised pathway to access a range of ongoing specialist support services far beyond hospital discharge that will enable them to sustain their caring role within the community.

This supportive approach, working in partnership with relevant public bodies and voluntary organisations, aims to maintain the caring role and build the resilience of the carers and ensure the carer is best placed to care and to enable the person they care for to remain living in their own home.
The service will include the following elements:
-One to one support,
-Training,
-Counselling,
-Practical advice,
-Respite,
Low level advocacy and information, advice and signposting as required.
