More cuts in Services From Northumberland County Council

CONCERNS have been raised over possible funding cuts to Supporting People services in Northumberland to bring spending in line with national patterns.
Reduced funding could impact on older people and adults with disabilities, but increased spending could benefit other vulnerable groups, including the homeless, mental health sufferers and substance misusers.
Detailed reviews are being carried out before any specific funding shifts are confirmed.
Close attention will be paid to the value for money of each scheme and it is hoped the review will steadily improve the overall value for money of the programme.
