Whilst services commenced April 2017, Nottingham City Council and the Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCG¿s) are proposing to make financial savings through the following measures ¿ 1. Reduce funding to Carers Hub by removing 1-2-1 counselling sessions after 1 April 2018. 2. Reduce funding to Carers Respite through underspend and reducing maximum capacity from March 2018. The service is paid at an hourly rate, based on usage, so any reductions in costs can only be achieved by reducing capacity in the service. Funding reductions will include both the underspend from early 2017/18, when the service was newly introduced and not operating at full capacity, and reducing maximum capacity in the service from March 2018.
