Summary of the contracting process

Cyngor Sir Ceredigion County Council has completed the procurement process for the "Award of Ceredigion - Venue Based Family Support," with the final contract awarded on 4th February 2026. The contract involves providing venue-based group support services at various family and children's centres located in Borth, Llandysul, Lampeter, Tregaron, Aberaeron, and Cardigan, within the region UKL14 in the United Kingdom. This procurement falls under the social work and related services category, specifically within the services sector. The procurement method utilised was an open competition, below the threshold with light-touch regulations. The tender originally invited applications up to 14th January 2026, and the contract period is set from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2028, with a potential 24-month extension option.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities, particularly for large-scale organisations specialising in community and social services. Businesses with expertise in providing social work and other related services, such as family support programmes, would be well-suited to compete in this domain. As the contract was awarded to Plant Dewi St David’s Diocesan Council for Social Responsibility, a large, voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE), this highlights the preference for suppliers that can demonstrate a strong commitment to social value. Furthermore, with a contract value estimated at £336,000 gross over the contract period, there’s potential for sustained collaboration and contribution towards improving community welfare in the Ceredigion region.
