In Extra Care Housing, the mix of onsite background support and commissioned care, with a dynamic approach to supporting people to make best use of communal spaces is at the heart of the success of the service. Every Extra Care Housing setting should offer a environment with its own identity, in which the Service Provider can offer quality Care and Support enhanced by a dedicated approach to ensuring that links with the community are well established and that the commissioned care in Client/Tenant's own properties is supplemented by the offer in the communal spaces. Extra Care Housing is a critical part of the objective to support people who have an eligible need for care and support as well as a housing need, to maintain their independence and avoid unnecessary or avoidable care home admission. The following Extra Care Schemes are included in this tender opportunity: Belmont Court Brushett House Bure House Craigleith Delphis House Kingsley House Shaftesbury Court Trinidad Village The anticipated start date of the contract is April 2026. The contract will be for 6 years with the option to extend for a further 2 years (6+1+1). Therefore, if all extensions were taken the full length of the contract would be for 8 years.
