## Description

The purpose of the soft market testing is to capture your comments, to help inform the future commissioning of a Cheshire West Social Welfare, Information and Advice Service\. Your responses will be used by commissioners in commercial confidence\. We are particularly interested in hearing from providers about different approaches to delivery of social welfare and advice service and how these services are delivered elsewhere? We are keen to hear about what has worked well and not so well and what could be done differently? Your feedback will support the development of the new social welfare, information and advice specification\. Your responses will help shape the future model\. Please register your interest by logging into the e-tendering portal, The Chest, www\.the-chest\.org\.uk \. Once you have registered your interest you can access further information and the questionnaire which should be completed and uploaded back on the Chest\.
