Details
This is the grant determination for the Market Sustainability and Improvement Fund for 2025 to 2026. This grant is intended to enable local authorities to maintain existing improvements made since the fund began in 2023 to 2024, within the fund target areas. This funding is also expected to support local authorities to, where possible, seek further improvements to adult social care services in their area, in particular to build capacity and improve market sustainability through increasing fee rates paid to adult social care providers, increasing workforce capacity and retention, and reducing waiting times for adult social care.
This grant determination is supported by the Market Sustainability and Improvement Fund guidance that sets out further detail on the grant and recipient authorities’ responsibilities in administering it.
