CS1525 - Residential Children's Homes

Notice Description

Wiltshire Council's Residential Block Contract is for the provision of 12 residential placements for children and young people, including at least 2 assessment placements to ensure capacity and availability in Wiltshire to meet the needs of Wiltshire Children. As part of this Contract the Supplier will ensure that in addition to the 3 properties that will be offered at peppercorn rent by Wiltshire Council as part of the Contract, they will have additional residential children's home capacity and availability in Wiltshire to meet the needs of the 12 Wiltshire children. It is expected that the Supplier could operate from a number of locations across the county, covering a variety of homes, up to a maximum size of 5 placements per home. The service will include 24 hour, 7 days per week supervised and 'homely' accommodation and care that meets the child or young person's needs.
