Whilst the majority of Community Care Option’s activities are funded through contracts with both the Local Authority and Primary Care Trust, there is still an ongoing need to seek external funding to sustain and develop some of our other existing projects.

A major part of the Quality & Funding Manager ‘s role will be to research sources of funding ands write business plans to attract funds.

It is essential that valued services are not lost when their current funding arrangement expires. Because the services we provide are predominantly for people in receipt of benefit and are reliant on paid staff support it is extremely difficult for projects to become self funding.

Community Care Options is always looking to develop services in response to currently unmet needs and is continually exploring funding opportunities that would support innovative services for people with disabilities.
