Since our last update the we have been busy evaluating the bids which were submitted during the tender process and finalising contract details. The evaluation involved a lot of reading, panel meetings and interviews with providers, we would like to thank the parent/Carer representatives from BURY2GETHER who volunteered to be part of the panel alongside Council officers from social care and commissioning.
We are really pleased to be able to share with you what the new targeted offer in Bury looks like! There are now different services to meet the different needs of eligible children and young people with disabilities with the emphasis on enabling choice, community access and preparation for independence.
