Description

Worcestershire County Council is committed to making sure that people with disabilities have the opportunity to live as independently and as normal a life as possible. As part of this commitment a range of supported living accommodation has been and is being developed across the County for people with disabilities. These are mainly a mix of clusters of flats and shared houses. When the Specification was written 415 people with learning disabilities were living independently in supported accommodation and that number is expected to increase.

The Council wishes to ensure that all Service Users have the opportunity to receive care and support from good quality Service Providers who listen to what people want, are empowering and promote independence wherever possible, provide services when and where people want, and provide safe services whilst not being overly risk averse.

Worcestershire County Council is looking for providers of Supported Living Services to join a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for the future procurement of them. The DPS will create a list of suppliers that can provide the services which the Council require for call off of future service delivery.

Details of the services required can be found in the Service Specification.

Please could tenderers ensure they read all the documentation provided and return all completed documents as requested and detailed in the DPS Information and Guidance provided.

Please 'View Details' and then 'Express Interest' and then in order to upload and complete the mandatory Questionnaire you must 'Opt in'.
