Overview

Overview of proposal

The contract for the community opportunities service will not be retendered when the contract ends in August 2017.

Overall impact of proposed change

Reduction in low level prevention services

Impact on affected service users

The service provides short term interventions so it is anticipated that the impact on existing service users will be minimal but this will be further established through consultation.

New service users will not be able to access the support that is currently available but there may be alternative community service options to meet their needs and this will be further established through consultation.
