    Brief

    This opportunity comprises two integrated services supporting unpaid carers across Devon. Lot 1: Carer Peer Support Service delivers person-centred, preventative support to adult unpaid carers, focusing on reducing loneliness and isolation through accessible peer support groups and activities. Using a strengths-based approach, the service connects carers with shared experiences, helps them build informal support networks, and enables them to maintain their health and independence while caring. It prioritises reaching underrepresented and harder-to-engage carer communities. Lot 2: Carer Ambassador Service ensures carers have a meaningful voice in health and social care service design and evaluation. The service recruits, supports and develops volunteer carers as ambassadors to influence decision-making, strengthen co-production, gather carer insights, and promote engagement. It aims to improve carer representation from diverse communities and drive continuous improvement across the health and social care system. Suppliers should demonstrate experience in carer support, peer-led services, co-production, and community engagement.
