The role of The Rowan Organisation is to provide support, advice and information to Direct Payment recipients. This includes supporting to recruit suitable personal assistants to meet the needs of the individual recruiting.

It is sometimes the case that applicants are unsuccessful in their application for a specific job. This is usually due to a high quality of applicants or the hours that the person is or is not able to work do not meet the individual's needs. There are also times when a personal assistant requires some additional hours. As a result of this the local team has created a database to hold the information of these applicants who have completed, agreed to and signed the enclosed form. This enables us to support Direct Payment recipients with their recruitment process.

If you decide to join this database we will contact you by phone or email to notify you of suitable vacancies as and when they appear on the website, to enable you to apply online for any posts that interest you.

However please note we do not recommend individuals for jobs and are not the employer, the employer is the Direct Payment recipient.

If you would like to be added to the database please fill in the form below (there is no charge involved) and email it back to the address provided. You will however need to inform us when you wish to be removed from the database by contacting us either via email or via telephone on 0800 783 1755. Your name will automatically be removed from the list after three months unless you advise us that you still wish to be considered, again, using the above contact information.

Please note: The PA Register Form (below) will open in a new window. Please select ‘Save' rather than ‘Open', and save the document on your computer. Please note that the form should be saved either as a Rich Text Format document (.rtf) or as a Word 2003 document (.doc). There is no requirement to actually sign the form (just type your name in the signature box), because email receipt of the completed form will constitute signed consent.

Once completed, please email the document to the PA Register Administrator. If you experience any difficulty with using the form, please contact the Information Service on 0845 608 8048.

Warwickshire County Council Market Facilitation (WCC-MF) support people who work in social care to access funding for training.

We would like to offer funding to people employing their own staff through direct payments to help train their Personal Assistants (PAs)

Workforce Development Funding (WDF) can be claimed through WCC-MF towards the costs of units of the Qualifications Credit Framework (QCF) such as:

• Dementia
• End of Life
• Learning Disabilities

A full list of the units you can claim funding for is available on request.

Units are broken down into ‘credits' (bite size pieces of the full qualification) so PAs can take as little or as much of the qualifications as required.
