I am conducting some research on telecare/assistive technology and how it may benefit older people who live alone, what councils approaches are to address this issue as well as how this differs by geography so that this information can be published to help TEC companies better meet the growing needs of the country. In order to do this I would please request the following information:
1. How many individuals did your council supply telecare to last year?
77 people were in receipt of telecare via WBC in 2022.
2. How many of those individuals were over the age of 65?
40 of the 77 people were over 65.
3. How many of those individuals lived alone?
Information not available.
4. What is the total population of your area?
167,979.
5. Could you please provide a copy of your Better Care Fund Plan if it exists.
