To form a partnership with Foundations Independent Living Trust to enable the administration of the Health Through Warmth Grant by City of York Council
Decision Maker: Corporate Director of Place
Decision status: Decision Made
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Decision:
This decision is to support the proposal for
City of York Council to become a local authority partner, with the
Foundations Independent living Trust (“FILT”), to
enable the piloting of the administration of the Health Through
Warmth Scheme in 2023/2024 in York.
This decision is also to authorise the Head of Housing Delivery and
Asset Management, in consultation with legal services and the
information governance, to negotiate the provisions, and conclude
the entry into the proposed Service Level Agreement and Data
Sharing Agreement with FILT.
Options Considered:
1. As the funding is only available from FILT,
then no other options have been considered.
2. However, the only other option would be not entering into
partnership with FILT.
Options Rejected:
2. Not entering a partnership with FILT would
prevent the Council from being able to provide financial support to
vulnerable residents to heat their homes in the case of boiler
breakdowns.
