Bespoke Online Booking System for External Assessors

OVERVIEW We're a care home group with 8 homes. We need a simple, self-service web booking tool for external assessors (DoLS Best Interests Assessors, CHC assessors, FNC reviewers, IMCAs, and others) to book their own visit slots to assess a resident. Currently done manually by phone/email — slow and time consuming. We want this replaced with a lightweight tool. WHO USES IT External assessors (primary users) — book their own slot, no account hassle. Our central Assessments and Contracts team (oversees all 8 homes) — configures settings and sees all bookings. CORE FEATURES Public booking page(s) — one per home or a single page with a home selector. Assessment type selection (DoLS, CHC, FNC Review, DST, IMCA, Best Interests Meeting, "Other" free text) — expandable later. Live availability & direct booking — no manual approval needed for MVP. Configurable minimum notice period per assessment type — e.g. DoLS bookable next day, CHC needs 2 weeks minimum, others TBC. Must be adjustable by our Assessments and Contracts team via a settings screen, not hardcoded. Outlook Calendar integration (Microsoft Graph API) — bookings sync with real per-home calendars and auto-create events. Automatic confirmation/reminder emails to assessor and home contact on booking, change, or cancellation. Microsoft Teams integration — auto-generate a Teams link for remote/hybrid visits. Booking form fields: assessor name/organisation/email/phone; resident's name; resident's DOB or NHS number; assessment type; "will staff time be required?" (Y/N); "will medical records be required?" (Y/N); "has NOK been notified?" (Y/N); free-text notes. Self-service reschedule/cancel via link in confirmation email. Central dashboard for the Assessments and Contracts team — view bookings across all homes, manage notice-period settings. NICE-TO-HAVES (not required for MVP) Per-home blackout dates; CSV/Excel export; SMS reminders. TECHNICAL PREFERENCES Must integrate with Microsoft 365 (Outlook + Teams) via Graph API or equivalent — no third-party calendar system. Freelancer's choice of platform/stack, as long as it integrates well with M365 and is easy for us to maintain (please explain your approach, e.g. Power Apps/Power Automate vs custom web app). Mobile-friendly, since assessors will often book from their phone. DATA PROTECTION Resident DOB/NHS number plus assessment type counts as special category health data under UK GDPR. Please address in your proposal: hosting/encryption (at rest & in transit); who can view resident-identifying records; retention/auto-purge policy; relevant experience with health-adjacent data in a UK/CQC-regulated context. No full medical records/care notes should be stored in the tool. DELIVERABLES Working system live across all 8 homes, link shareable with assessors. Outlook sync + Teams link generation, tested. Short (1-2 page) admin guide for the Assessments and Contracts team. Handover of admin credentials/access. BUDGET & TIMELINE Under £500 (MVP scope). A few weeks. Open to a phased approach — core booking + calendar sync first, nice-to-haves later if budget allows. PLEASE INCLUDE IN YOUR PROPOSAL Proposed tech approach and why it suits Microsoft 365; relevant experience with booking systems/Graph API/Outlook/Teams integrations; rough timeline and milestones; assumptions/questions given the budget.

UK Commercial Litigation Solicitor

We are looking for an experienced UK Commercial Litigation Solicitor to provide urgent legal advice regarding a dispute with our third-party fulfilment and warehousing provider. This is a business-to-business commercial contract dispute governed by the laws of England and Wales. Background We entered into a signed fulfilment and warehousing agreement with a UK third-party logistics (3PL) provider. The agreement contains an express clause requiring 30 days' written notice for termination by either party. On 27 June 2026, we served written notice to terminate the agreement in accordance with the contract. On 30 June 2026, the fulfilment provider confirmed in writing that: Friday, 3 July 2026 would be the final day they would dispatch our customer orders. They were still reconciling and packing our inventory. They could only "try" to have our stock ready for collection. They anticipated that multiple collections might be required. Our concern is that the provider intends to cease providing the contracted fulfilment service only six days after receiving our contractual notice, rather than continuing to perform the agreement throughout the agreed 30-day notice period. We require urgent legal advice on whether the provider is entitled to end the service before the contractual notice period expires, whether this amounts to a breach of contract, and whether we have grounds to recover the financial losses arising from these actions. Advice Required We require an experienced solicitor to review: The signed fulfilment agreement. The contractual termination provisions. Email correspondence. The actions taken during the notice period. Our legal position. Any potential breaches of contract. Our prospects of recovering financial losses. Specifically, we require advice on: Whether the fulfilment provider has complied with the contractual 30-day notice provisions.

Legal advice Employment law employer negligence accident at work

** Must be a qualified solicitor registered with SRA ** Looking to understand how to best move forward with legal action for a past work accident, and what are the steps involved, rough costs, time frames etc. Is employee negligence / breach duty of care the best (as in most likely) legal avenue? Need to understand the time limits – I didn’t find out the cover up until a copy of my medical records were obtained in 2024. Does the fact that the company covered up the accident and denied me life saving medical care offer and avenue and also nullify the personal injury claim ? I have no desire at this stage to explore legal action against my past solicitors. Is an employer legally required to provide medical assistance to an employee who sustains a serious injury, and do they also have a legal obligation to ensure that a certain number of staff members are trained in first aid? Happy to communicate in writing or phone call etc. I suffered a workplace accident that was not my fault and the company admitted liability, however due to workplace accidents being rife the company (to be confirmed) deliberately tried to cover up and downgrade the accident, ultimately leading to myself receiving such inadequate medical care that it constitutes being denied medical care. This is also lead to incorrect information being documented on my medical records with was a vast contrast to what I was claiming my injuries were, so that it created a bias from health care professionals that is still prevalent today, resulting in still not receiving adequate investigation or treatment. The accident 03/03/2017- whilst working in a loading bay and opening the curtains on a large double decker height lorry, another employee operating a folk lift started unloading from the opposite side and knocked a pallet containing 50kg of drums. striking me in the head throwing me to the floor. Immediately following my accident, the company having no qualified health and safety staff members on shift, did not call an ambulance to correctly identify the severity of my head injury, and went against protocol to move me, forcibly picking me up and taking me to Loughborough walk in centre. Whilst I was suffering from a severe concussion and did not feel capable, the company employee told the doctors at the walk in centre that I had been hit on the head by a 5ltr bottle - not a pallet totalling 50kg drums and was exceptionally lucky to be alive. I did not establish this fact until February 2024 when I got a copy of the my NHS medical record from the night of my accident. The employee misinforming the doctor was part of the evidence I have as to why the company deliberately covered up my accident: • The company had a chequered health and safety history, including a fatality in 2003 - news paper article attached. • 3 cameras of the accident were mysteriously not working. • No ambulance called • Doctors given incorrect information to down play the accident. • The company did not report the accident to the health and safety executive until 3.5 Years after the accident - not the maximum of 15 days timeframe required by RIDDOR. • Its suspected that the companies insurance company may have also been given the incorrect weight * - pending information from a GDPR request . Possible avenues of legal recourse: Employer Negligence / Duty of Care: The company breached their duty of care and failed to provide me with medical help following my accident. No health and safety employee on site, I was a risk employee being on blood thinners and should not have been moved without a spinal board and an ambulance. please see the attached word document that covers the rest of the details.
