II.2.4) Description of the procurement
The Service supports Young Carers by providing professional support, advice, and assistance
to children and young people who have caring responsibilities, and providing advice and
guidance to professional staff and parents about the needs and issues in relation to young
carers. This includes facilitating breaks for children and young people, with caring
responsibilities, from the caring tasks, including offering opportunities for them to partake in
activities outside their homes, and by the provision of a weekly activity based group. It also
includes a family link worker service, to assess young carers and their families, attend Team
Around the Child (TAC) meetings as appropriate, and liaise with outside agencies to ensure
that the cared-for young person receives an appropriate package of support. A school
support service for primary and secondary schools and colleges raises awareness across all
schools/colleges in Stockport to ensure that young carers are identified at the earliest
opportunity, through, for example, assemblies and staff training sessions. Workers also
support regular ‘drop ins’ in schools for young carers to access positive activities and peer
support. One to one support may be provided for some young carers.
