119 BCP Council's Adult Day Opportunities Strategy PDF 605 KB

The day opportunities strategy has been co-produced over the past eighteen months with a range of stakeholders and achieved project milestones to inform the final draft for Cabinet approval. This supports a mixed model of day opportunities and the continued need to retain availability of traditional building-based day services alongside further development of community-based options.

The draft strategy and two proposals regarding Tricuro day services were submitted for recent public consultation. The consultation feedback and necessary review of the day opportunities budget in line with Medium Term Financial Plan (MTFP) considerations have led to the recommended options.
