  • Registered Providers for Domiciliary Care and Independent Living
    Social Care & Housing Services Registered Providers for DOMICILIARY CARE AND INDEPENDENT LIVING September 21 Social Care & Housing Services Home Care (which is sometimes referred to as Domiciliary Care) is where a paid carer visits you in your own home and helps you with any daily activities that you cannot safely manage on your own, enabling you to remain as independent as possible in an environment you know. Domiciliary care can be funded by Torfaen Social Care and Housing (including Direct Payments), or privately funded by yourself. For Torfaen Social Care and Housing to pay for domiciliary care, you will need an assessment to determine your eligibility for services. An assessment may determine that you are not eligible for Torfaen Social Care and Housing to fund your care, however you may choose to purchase care directly from one of the providers on this list. While domiciliary care generally refers to care delivered in the home, carers may also undertake duties outside of someone’s home e.g. supporting you to access a community activity. Domiciliary Care and Independent Living is not just about tasks that people do for you, but tasks and daily living that you need support with. Some people may have to have things done for them because of the situation they are in; others may be unable or need a little help to perform such tasks. This list is published to help you, your relatives, carers, and friends identify suitable providers, should you wish to make your own private arrangements to purchase the support you need direct from a provider.

  • Torfaen RLDP Preferred Strategy
    Housing Growth and Spatial Options Briefing Paper Papur Briffio Twf Tai a Dewisiadau Gofodol July 2019 / Gorffennaf 2019 Torfaen Local Development Plan Review: Housing Growth and Spatial Options Briefing Paper (July 2019) “How much housing and where? - this briefing paper provides information to help us decide how many new homes we plan for (the growth level) in the Replacement Torfaen LDP (2018-2033) and where should they be located (its spatial distribution)?” Introduction - The Council (TCBC) is in the process of producing a Replacement Torfaen Local Development Plan (RLDP) to shape and guide development in the County Borough between 2018 and 2033. The RLDP will be the Council’s new land use plan and will identify land for development, areas to be protected, and contain policies that we will use to take decisions on planning applications. All going well, we hope to ‘adopt’ the Replacement LDP at the end of 2021; noting that the existing Torfaen LDP expires on 31st March 2021 and cannot be used thereafter as a policy framework for determining planning applications. The Torfaen RLDP is being prepared in line with the Council’s published Torfaen RLDP Delivery Agreement (June 2018), which sets out the production’ timetable’ and approach to ‘community consultation’. Given that both our neighbours, Blaenau Gwent and Monmouthshire are producing their own RLDP to the same timescales, we are working jointly with them on many specific items of work / evidence. We have already held a key stakeholder workshop (October 2018) to consider the ‘Vision’ and ‘Objectives’ for the RLDP, which has been used to inform the draft vision and objectives detailed below.
