  • Warwickshire County Council

Procurement identifier (OCID): ocds-h6vhtk-04bd46

Description

The aim is to facilitate the delivery of a range of Short Breaks, Respite and Family Care services for eligible children and young people with a disability and/or other children in need (CwD / CiN).

Short breaks will focus on personal and community assets to support choice, control, and increased independence. Parent/carers will benefit by receiving meaningful respite that will enable them to focus on their own health, well-being and daily living needs.

Family care services are intended to provide additional care and support to families who have complex and/or specialist needs, and/or require urgent packages of care, to prevent family breakdown.

Children and young people aged 0-18 with a disability and/or life-threatening illnesses including:

• Learning disability

• Physical disability

• Sensory impairment

• Profound and multiple learning disabilities

• Autistic spectrum conditions

• Mental health needs

• Attention and conduct disorders

• Behaviours that can challenge

• Chronic health condition

This list is indicative and not exhaustive. Customers are likely to have needs across a number of these areas.

It will be exceptional for pre-school children to access the service, but the service should not restrict if it can meet needs.
