AMCV 279 - Shared Lives Service

Shropshire Council holds a current contract for a Shared Lives service which expires on 30.11.19 and is therefore tendering this and wishes to appoint a provider to operate the service from 01.12.19.

Shared Lives care offers people an alternative and highly flexible form of accommodation and/or care or support inside or outside the Shared Lives carer's home. Shared Lives arrangements are set up and supported by Shared Lives schemes and the care and accommodation people receive is provided by individuals, couples or families in the local community. This enables people taking up a Shared Lives opportunity and the Shared Lives carer/s to enjoy shared activities and life experiences.
