The Outdoor Learning Service Manager role has been vacant since April 2022 and has been covered by a job share on an interim basis. The role previously managed multiple teams including the Education Visits Advice Service, Adventure, PSHE and Swimming. Since the role became vacant, the Education Visits Advice Service ceased with immediate effect and the PSHE function has moved to another team. The Adventure and Swimming services will continue to be delivered, but with a different management structure which means this post will no longer be required.

The Council commissions Nottingham Revenues and Benefits to undertake financial assessments for those in receipt of adult social care services. The assessment entails two parts: - Identifying any additional income or benefits that the service user is entitled to (e.g. attendance allowance, Council Tax support, universal credit) - Using national formula to calculate a Total Chargeable Income (TCI) - i.e. how much the maximum a person can afford to contribute towards the cost of the care they receive. Regardless of the amount of care received the cost to the service user never exceeds the TCI.
