North West (NW) local authorities are exploring a regional welfare and advice offer to international recruits working in adult social care. The three NW sub regions: Cheshire and Merseyside, Lancashire with Westmorland and Furness, and Greater Manchester (comprising of 23 local authorities) have been collaborating in relation to oversight of ethical international recruitment for Adult Social Care. Work to date has been funded by the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) and in part facilitated by North West Association of Directors of Adults Social Services (NW ADASS).
