About

Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council awarded a contract to Age UK Barnsley for the development and delivery of a service addressing the needs of isolated and vulnerable older people in the Penistone East and West wards.

The service aimed to complement existing provision, increase security, independence, health and wellbeing, and reduce loneliness and isolation, while incorporating sustainability, community support, self-reliance, resilience, and reciprocity.

It also sought to create volunteering, mentoring, work experience, and apprenticeship opportunities, and to maximise local spend and labour.

The contract was for an initial 12-month period from 1 January 2017 to 31 December 2017, with an option to extend for a further year at the council's discretion, at a value of AUD 68,846.
