BETAThis is a new independent transparency project, not an official government website. The data is sourced from public registers and may contain errors, so always verify against the official source. If you find a problem, please report it here.
This project seeks to provide education to families, personal assistants and small independent care providers, delivered in partnership by peer educators and subject matter experts. The aim of the work is to support the development of peer coaching and training to provide learning and resources which will upskill the families and carers through the period of transition into restart and the new future after Covid-19. The education should be developed for families as a priority but should also be relevant to Personal Assistants and small support providers. It will contribute to the reduction of the potential for unnecessary admissions for autistic people of all ages whose distressed behaviours may otherwise lead to hospital admission by giving families and carers the knowledge, skills and support to use appropriate strategies to prevent crisis escalation.
This is an approach to remote education and coaching provision which is designed to reduce the pressure on stretched families and support the interventions service providers offer. It recognises that coaching from other (peer) family members is uniquely valued, especially where accompanied by input from subject matter experts.
Funding of up to £45K is available to be awarded to an organisation, or partnership of organisations, which can start work immediately to design, develop and deliver education and coaching as outlined within the specification.
