What are Micro-Providers?

Micro-providers are typically small, independent, community-based organisations or sole traders that deliver highly personalised care and support.

Their ability to offer flexible, relational, and place-based support makes them especially well suited to meeting the needs of people who prefer bespoke arrangements over traditional services.

South Gloucestershire Council has partnered with WECIL to establish a quality-assured directory of micro-providers, accessible to Direct Payment holders, self-funders, and community partners.

If you are looking for personalised, flexible, community-based support, with increased choice and control over how your care and support are delivered, please visit our Micro-Provider Directory to search for local, quality-assured care and support.
