I am hoping to reach people who have experience of the micro enterprise model, where individuals can use SDS budgets to purchase support from self-employed PA’s. As I understand it, the model is not uniformly implemented across all Scottish local authorities. I’m specifically looking for advice on the contractual arrangements.
Ayrshire Independent Living Network (AILN) might be the best people to contact. I don’t have up-to-date contact details but you could try Kirsti Bell at microenterprise@ailn.org or call 07951795337.
