Description

Southend-on-Sea City Council is carrying out this procurement exercise for the provision of Supported Living with outreach services (Lot 1) and without outreach services (Lot 2) and invites electronic tenders to join an Approved Provider List - round 2.

The purpose of Supported living is to provide support and care as needed to allow people to live as independently as possible within the community, based on the following principles:

• all services are commissioned on a person-centred basis and are required to be responsive to the personal needs and preferences of each individual;

• given the right support, people with learning disabilities, mental health, autism, physical disabilities, or impairments can live well and maintain their health with varying levels of independence;

• the good health and wellbeing of the people for whom these services are commissioned is 'everyone's business' and not influenced by the type of organisation providing the service (i.e., social care services)

Further information is set out in the tender documents.
