Description

The project for delivery of a National Carers Passport Toolkit is one of a suite of new projects that are required to support the delivery of the forthcoming national strategy for carers . The aim of the National Carers Passport Toolkit project is to increase the number of carers' passport schemes in operation in England by making available a Toolkit of carers' passport models that will include passport templates as well as guidance for local providers on how to implement a carers' passport scheme locally.

The Department has heard in its Call for Evidence, which has informed the development of the new strategy, how important it is to identify carers; signpost carers to information, advice, and other forms of support; have more joined up working between the services that carers need and use and enable carers to navigate within and between these services. This project and its outcomes seek to address these issues, as well as support the Department's wider strategic aims to: • support carers to continue to care while minimising the detrimental impact on their own health and wellbeing and other life chances; and • ensure the new rights for carers introduced by the Care Act 2014 are more fully embedded, and bring the benefits to carers intended by the Act . The project is for the successful Contractor to design, publish, promote and support uptake of a National Carers Passport Toolkit.
