Management of Unpaid Carers Grants Applications

This is an ongoing scheme funded via Welsh Government grants for Short Breaks Scheme for Unpaid Carers. The financial awards in the scheme supports the governments objectives surrounding unpaid carers breaks, to empower unpaid carers to continue their caring role without compromising their own physical, mental, financial or social wellbeing which strengthens the wider health and social care system. The proposed project for the Management of Unpaid Carers Grant Applications by CAVUHB is considered to be outside the scope of formal procurement procedures. Moreover the work falls within the scope of grant making powers that allow public bodies to fund activities in pursuit of policy outcomes, without triggering formal procurement procedures.
