The council is now considering new proposals as part of phase two of the housing-related support cuts.
Cuon Clare Neill Derbyshire County Council Cabinet Member for Adult Social Care said: “We want to hear from as many people as possible during the consultation and work with organisations affected to see if services can be offered differently so that some can continue to run to support the most vulnerable.” Consultations run from 12th August to 18th November.
