Decision details

That the draft Joint Strategy for Carers be approved for adoption as the new Bromley Carers’ Strategy 2016-2020.

In June 2015, the Local Authority and Bromley Clinical Commissioning Group commissioned a project, funded by the Better Care Fund, to engage with a broad range of local stakeholders to develop a new joint five year Carers’ Strategy which responded to changes in local situations and national legislation including the Children and Families Act 2014 and Carers Act 2014, and would identify current priorities, establish the future direction of travel and shape commissioning intentions. 

The new Bromley Carers’ Strategy 2016-20 has been approved by the Clinical Executive Group of Bromley Clinical Commissioning Group, and it is requested that the Bromley Carers’ Strategy 2016-20 be approved to enable work to commence on implementation of the action plan and development of a new commissioning strategy.
