  • Dear Direct Payment During COVID
    Somerset County Council County Hall, Taunton Somerset, TA1 4DY Please ask for: Direct Payments support Team Email: [email protected] Tel no: 01823 359184 Date: 8th April 2020 Dear Direct Payment During COVID-19 Somerset County Council, in line with Central Government policy, are committed to supporting our carer networks. To ensure we still have the services needed post COVID-19 we have taken the decision to continue to fund all services as per usual whether they are delivered or not. As a direct payment holder, we are asking that you continue to pay for your usual services in full via the usual mechanisms. All providers have been asked to continue to invoice direct payment clients as they normally would. We recognise that during this time you may need to use your Direct Payment in an alternative way, or you may require additional care to support your child and yourself. If this is the case, please contact your allocated worker. Following a discussion with you about why changes to the Direct Payment agreement are needed we will work with you to either agree how your Direct Payment can be used in an alternative way; if necessary we may be able to provide additional funds to meet your needs or arrange for care to be delivered via an alternative route. When you have the next review of your direct payment, post COVID-19, any funds that were not required for care during this time will be returned to the local authority. Yours sincerely Jackie Miles Operations Manager Children with Disabilities Service.

  • Transport in Wellington – the Way Ahead March 2009
    This document is part of the Taunton Area Transport Strategy Review, which covers transportation issues in Wellington, Taunton & Bridgwater. As you may know, Wellington will experience a significant amount of housing and economic growth between now and 2026. Ensuring the transport network is sufficient to cope with this growth is a key part of our work and this document gives suggestions about the range of transport improvements that could be made to support future development. Good transport links to, in and around Wellington, are fundamental to its economic and social vitality. However, congestion and its associated knock-on effects have been a concern for a number of years. Somerset County Council has been working on gathering evidence and assessing current and future traffic trends to feed into a long-term action plan to address transport issues from the present until 2026. While this may seem a long time period, it should be recognised that transport projects often take many years to plan, fund and build so it is sensible to plan this far ahead. Through a detailed study of the transport trends in the town, the following issues have been identified: Key objectives of the project are: G At the times of high demand, approximately 65% of people are making journeys for work purposes; Safety G There is not enough space on popular routes for all those who G Reduce casualties for all users of transport want to use them, so queuing and delay occurs – it is G Reduce crime and the fear of crime on public transport anticipated that this will
