Working with carers, practitioners and NHS partners, the project will address barriers to support and drive changes in practice to improve earlier and more consistent identification of unpaid carers across the Lothians.

It will support the development of an early carer identification blueprint, strengthen good carer conversations using the Adult Carer Support Plan (ACSP) framework, and co-design and implement a new integrated digital carer identification platform.

The postholder will join a project team comprising an iCare Project & Systems Manager, based within VOCAL, and Project Coordinators covering Midlothian, East Lothian and West Lothian.

• Building positive working relationships with the wider project team, carers, CoEL colleagues, NHS and community partners, and other carer centres.

• Supporting meaningful carer involvement through the development and coordination of a Carers Assembly, ensuring that carers lived experience helps shape project priorities, changes in practice and digital development.

• Planning and supporting focus groups, workshops, briefings and training sessions with carers and practitioners.

• Supporting co-design and user testing of a digital carer identification platform, while ensuring digital options complement rather than replace non-digital support.

• Gathering feedback and data, and contributing to project learning, evaluation and reporting to the funder.
