Description

PROVIDER EVENT 1 SEPTEMBER 2023

Northamptonshire Children's Trust (NCT) are pleased to advise they will be going out to tender for a new DPS for the provision of Independent Fostering Agencies and Children Homes for children in our care.

This will form part of an overarching approach to provide homes to ensure children in our care have a place that is safe and suitable for their individual needs, where they are supported by people who care for them and about them to achieve their full potential, develop resilience, enjoy good health and wellbeing and develop into adulthood.

This will replace the current framework for Independent Fostering Agencies and Children Homes ending in January 2024. Therefore, all providers of Independent Fostering Agencies and Children Homes are invited to this event and to apply to the DPS Agreement.

There will be two identical virtual events, led by Commissioning and Procurement colleagues, to discuss the tender process. These events will be held on:

• Friday 1st September 2023 from 10.00am-12.00pm


• Friday 1st September 2023 from 2.00pm-4.00pm
