Person-centred care is a key theme running through this vision. Genuine choice and control about personalised care and support can enhance quality of life and promote independence in a way that matters to individuals. Together, these measures aim to put learning disabilities service users at the heart of what we do. We seek to ensure co-production with providers is embedded through the commissioning and procurement processes in the development and implementation of the framework with a co-ordinated long-term vision in-line with responsibilities set under the care act 2014 to ensure personalisation, independence, choice, control and designing services to local demand.

The market engagement event will provide an opportunity to discuss the borough’s vision for how learning disabilities housing care and support is to be delivered in the future. We are keen to hear your views and utilise your expertise to commission a high quality and sustainable service for our residents.

Providers with experience of delivering these types of services in-borough and neighbouring boroughs are invited to attend a supplier engagement event on Friday 29th July 2022 (am). Kindly register your expression of interest via our e-tendering portal; www.capitalesourcing.com and search for the following reference: pqq_WCC_1788_Learning Disabilities, Housing Care and Support Framework.
