Wrexham Carers Lead Officer Consultation for unpaid carers

Wrexham Carers Lead Officer Consultation for unpaid carers

Why are we doing this?: 

The remit of this consultation was to ascertain the views of stakeholders about services for unpaid carers in Wrexham County and the views of professionals in this field on the need for a Carers Lead Officer for Wrexham. Amgen Consultants Limited undertook the consultation in March and April 2022, with the support of the commissioning team.

What we found out: 

There is a need for coordination across Adult Services and Children’s Services. There is also a need to have a focal point to gather together the relevant information and knowledge in order that people can be helped in a timely and effective way rather than being passed from one officer to another.

What difference has it made?: 

This report provides an overview of consultation undertaken and the results, it includes responses to selected questions and some of the comments made. A full report of 27 pages has been provided to Wrexham County Borough Council (WCBC) who commissioned this work.
