Lot Information

Lot 1

Aberdeen City Council has a requirement for the provision of a fully accessible single sensory service across Aberdeen City (the "Service") for adults aged 16 and over. The duration of this contract is from 1st April 2021 to 31st March 2024, with two potential one-year extensions. The Service shall offer support to individuals who have a range of issues relating to sensory impairment ("Supported People") and it shall also extend to the families and/or carers of Supported People. The Service shall also seek to raise public awareness around issues relating to sensory loss, train and educate professionals, as well as influence planning decisions to improve accessibility. It is envisaged that the Service will provide varying levels of support, ranging from intensive support, for example, social work assessments, to low level, for example, newsletters. Interventions may be required at short notice and on an ad hoc basis therefore the service to people with a sensory loss needs to be responsive to need. The Service Provider will also maintain a register of visually impaired people on behalf of the Council.
