Description

Hertfordshire County Council (the Council) is establishing a Framework Agreement for Community Opportunity services and is seeking bids from organisations who want to provide these services in future and who:

o Are committed to delivering enabling, risk positive, outcome-focused services
o Will work in a 'Connected Lives' way - helping people to connect to communities, other sources of support and technology and networks
o Consider how sharing hours can reduce the level of support a service user would otherwise have in a different setting, provided that it still meets the individual needs and preferences of each person
o Will proactively manage demand and deliver innovative approaches
o Are progressive and forward looking, wanting to develop services
o Will work in partnership with the Council, partners and community organisations
o Will commit to becoming a member of Herts Care Providers Association

The aim of this tender is to put in place a Framework Agreement for Community Opportunity Services that
will enable the commissioning of those services as effectively as possible. The Council wants to
develop the range and number of Community Opportunities for adults with learning disabilities,
autism, physical disabilities, mental health conditions and older people.
