Description

9 Cheshire and Mersey Local Authorities have combined grant funding to procure a single provider or co-operative (eg several organisations working together with one leading) for 12 months to provide support to internationally recruited care workers. This includes care workers who are currently employed within any regulated adult social care provider and those who have been displaced as a result of an adult social provider having their license of sponsorship revoked and are currently looking to continue working in care in the Cheshire and Mersey region. Whilst the exact numbers of people working in care that were Internationally recruited is difficult to assess by region - there are an estimated 105k people working across the UK and approximately 9,000 workers are in the North West region. The service is to do 2 main things (1) help people settle positively in the UK, (2) help people to stay settled and positive, including when there are issues or when concerns arise associated with their stay and employment.
