Lot Information
Lot 1
Within Birmingham and Solihull CCG there are currently two wheelchair services in operation - the Birmingham Wheelchair Service (BWS) and Solihull Wheelchair Service (SWS). BSol CCG intends to re-procure the Solihull Wheelchair service as the current provider has handed in their notice. A replacement service therefore needs to be in place and fully operational before 1st July 2022. In 2019/20, Solihull Wheelchair Service records indicated 5200 registered users. There were around 709 new referrals and 363 re-referrals per annum. As of May 26th 2021 the service had 241 open episodes of care. The service is currently provided from the Better Living Centre, service users' homes or school, hospice or hospital settings. It is anticipated that the Better Living Centre will not be available to the newly appointed provider, so new accessible premises located in Solihull and close to good transport links will need to be sought for the service going forward.
