## About this tender

The Provider shall deliver information and advice service and a service which directly provides support for Stroke Survivors and Carers of Stroke Survivors across Cumbria.

The service shall be a person-centred Service which builds support around the Service User and/or Carer and provides maximum choice, control and flexibility in the way support is received regardless of the setting whilst maintaining Service Users/Carers dignity and respect.

The Provider should promote the establishment of self-sustaining peer support groups and support the development of community assets to support Stroke Survivors and carers of Stroke Survivors.

This should support the need for long term care services and reduce unnecessary hospital admissions. The service must be of high quality, safe, support best practise, and provide value for money that meets the quality outcomes and safeguarding responsibilities of the Council.
