Description
The Council is seeking to procure a provider to deliver two Housing Support Solution Service contracts:-
Lot 1 - Supported Living Service - £490,000 per annum
The Supported Living Service will deliver 24/7 care and support to 6 individuals within a specific property at Cherry Tree House. The property is 6-bedroom, ground floor accommodation and is situated in Masborough.
The property is owned and managed by Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council. The scheme is currently fully occupied, the ages of the tenants is between 23 and 76. The tenants have multiple profound disabilities
The new service to be commissioned will be similar to the existing service with improvements made to the service requirements in line with the My Front Door Principles around transformation of Learning Disability services in Rotherham.
It is anticipated that the contract will commence on 01/10/2021 and will run for a period of three years of the initial contract term making the expiry date 30/09/2024. The contract will have an option to extend by a further 2 x 12-month extension periods at the sole discretion of the Council making the latest possible expiry date 30/09/2026.
Lot 2 - Peer Support Networks - £98,534 per annum
The service provides low level support to maintain and increase independence for people, with a Learning Disability and/or Autism, who are living in their own accommodation in the community. The service does not provide personal care.
The service currently supports around 30 people in 3 distinct areas of Rotherham; Thurcroft, Thrybergh and Kimberworth Park. People live close by, within walking distance of each other, to ensure the feeling of Community is developed. Peer to peer support is an essential part of the offer in addition to the formal support offered through the service.
People currently accessing the service may or may not have eligible assessed needs and some have been part of the service for many years.
There is a need to expand the current provision across the Borough to increase the availability of this type of low-level support to maintain and increase the independence of people with a Learning Disability and/or Autism living in and moving on to their own accommodation in the community.
Consideration will be given to increasing the budget for this service in the future. This would allow for the service to be expanded to support more people.
It is anticipated that the contract will commence on 01/10/2021 and will run for a period of three years of the initial contract term making the expiry date 30/09/2024. The contract will have an option to extend by a further 2 x 12-month extension periods at the sole discretion of the Council making the latest possible expiry date 30/09/2026.
