Opportunity for Peer Support Memory Group Project

Sep 30

Posted by Mark Richardson in Funders | No Comments

Cornwall Council, in partnership with NHS Cornwall and Isles of Scilly, wishes to commission a Peer Support Memory Group Facilitator to set up Memory Cafes and other appropriate support networks as appropriate across each of the 19 Community Networks in Cornwall. In Year 2 this post will be supported by 2 Project Support Workers.

This is an opportunity to provide a quotation for a Peer Support Memory Group Facilitator to be hosted by a third sector organisation. The closing date is 4pm on the 16th October. The funders apologise for the delay in seeking this quotation, but confirmation of funding has only just been received from the Department of Health.

Further details are attached: LET Peer Support Memory Facilitator

There is also a project specification: PeersupportprojectServicespec
