two.1.4) Short description
Lambeth Council are excited to announce the commissioning of our semi-independent living contracts for 16+ children looked after and care leavers. These will be procured through six lots of Approved Provider Lists, with different support models including: enhanced 24/7 support; standard 24/7 support; and visiting support. Three lots are for services within a London borough, and three lots for the same support models but for services outside London in recognition of expected differences in pricing. Our ask is for services to be creative in their approaches, trauma-informed, and for young people to be truly at the heart of your organisation, with their needs put first.
Through this tender, successful bidders will be placed onto the Approved Provider Lists. Individual placements will then be agreed through later call-off processes as placements are required. At the call off stage APL providers will put forward their proposals which include the property details and support offer.
