Birmingham City Council awarded a contract to Forward Carers CIC and The Bayswater Institute for commissioning a series of focus groups in Birmingham to gain deeper insight into different population groups' relationship with ageing, their values and priorities, and the specific challenges facing less well-reached groups.

The findings will inform the older adult's team for 2022/23 and beyond, including the older adult's strategy, and will be shared with partners.

The contract covers up to 15 focus groups across various lots, including ex-prisoners, Black African, South Asian, Black Caribbean, migrants, homeless people, veterans, younger persons, people with long-term health conditions, those on minimum income, unpaid carers, recent dementia diagnosis, LGBT+, and other community groups.

The contract value is AUD 2,000.
