The service is to be operated from a facility in Church Stretton, located in the West Midlands, UK. This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) as well as voluntary and community sector organisations to expand their service offerings in the social care sector. Providers with a background in learning disability services and the ability to deliver quality day services are particularly well-suited for this contract, which also requires consideration for existing staff under TUPE regulations.

Maximum funding for this service is PS76,000 per annum. The Council wishes to appoint a provider who has experience of providing learning disability services and who is able to deliver a quality day service from their own building based in the town of Church Stretton. An outreach service once a week is also delivered in Bishop's Castle for which a rented base has been sourced by the current provider to operate from. Applicants should note that it is considered that the Employee 'Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations '2006 ('TUPE') may apply to this contract. Also, due to the fact that there are staff providing the service who are currently in the Local Government Pension Scheme, compliance with the provisions The Best Value Authorities Staff Transfers (Pensions) Direction 2007, in relation to the Local Government Pension Scheme (as administered by Shropshire County Pension Fund) will also be required.
