The brief

Wakefield Council is undertaking a soft market engagement exercise to better understand the current landscape of Direct Payments (DP) support services delivered across the wider sector.

As we prepare to shape the future model of our local Direct Payment support offer, we want to ensure that any future approach is informed by up-to-date insight, good practice and innovative delivery models already operating successfully in other areas.

This engagement seeks to gather information from organisations with experience in providing Direct Payment support, whether locally, regionally or nationally.

We are particularly interested in understanding the breadth of services available, and what providers see as the essential components of an effective, person-centred Direct Payment support service.

We welcome insight, ideas and reflections from all interested providers as we work towards shaping a Direct Payments support offer that empowers people, promotes independence, and delivers positive outcomes for our local residents.
