Description
Bournemouth, Christchurch, and Poole (BCP) Council is pleased to invite providers to a virtual Market Engagement Event taking place on Tuesday 25 November 2025, 13:30 -16:30 via Microsoft Teams.

This session is open to all providers with an interest in delivering services including Housing Related Support type services, Supported Living and Specialist Care and Support for the above needs across the BCP area.

The future framework aims to enhance outcomes for individuals receiving services and their support networks through an improved, strengths based person-centred approach to delivery. This aligns with BCP Council's broader ambition to help all residents live fulfilling lives, maximising opportunity for all. This Framework tender opportunity is anticipated to be published via Supplying the South West, Early in 2026.
