This opportunity falls under the category of social work services with accommodation and has a procurement method described as an open procedure. The contract will span from 1st April 2019 to 31st March 2021, with a potential annual extension until 2024. Interested parties must submit their bids by 4th December 2018, and the service will be delivered in Trafford or neighbouring areas. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in social care services, particularly those experienced in supporting vulnerable young people. Service providers with a flexible approach to meet the evolving needs of care leavers will be well-suited for this contract. Additionally, small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community social enterprises (VCSEs) may find this an advantageous prospect to expand their service offerings in the North West region of the UK. ## Notice Trafford Council is seeking a Service Provider to deliver a new care leaver service providing both accommodation and support for up to 5 young people leaving care from the 1st April 2019. This will be a 2 year contract with the option to extend on annual basis until 31st March 2024. The Young People The Service Provider will support young people leaving care between the ages of 16 (i.e. on the school leaving date in the academic year in which they turn 16) up to 21 years with the priority age group being those aged 16-17 years upon admission with medium to high level support needs. Young people supported by this service will present with varying levels of need and may have experienced poor parenting, neglect and/or abuse, including sexual or criminal exploitation. They may have been exposed to substance misuse and may engage in experimental or risk taking behaviour with regard to substances, offending and sexual health; therefore the Service Provider will need to make appropriate links with supporting agencies. The Service Provider will work in close partnership with the Permanence and Transitions team to identify appropriate referrals which will be approved via the Councils Placement Panel. The Support We are looking for a Service Provider who can offer a flexible service to support our existing and future demands. We know the needs of young people are ever changing and we need a service that is responsive. The Service Provider will support young people to live semi-independently through 24 hour support with a minimum of 1 staff member at all times and offer flexibility to provide additional support as required dependent on the needs of the young people. The Accommodation The accommodation will need to be in Trafford or an area which neighbours the Trafford boundaries. The requirement is for 5 bedrooms for young people. This may be 5 ensuite bedrooms with all other facilities shared or it may be 5 self-contained flats, each having their own front door, bathroom, bedroom, kitchen/living space plus a shared communal area for social activities Please refer to tender documents for further information ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3985351b-06d5-477f-bac1-73d453d795fc | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 5 Nov 2018 | | Submission deadline | 4 Dec 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Mar 2019 - 31 Mar 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1,300,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | TRAFFORD COUNCIL | | Locality | STRETFORD | | Post town | Manchester | | Postcode | M32 0TH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD3 Greater Manchester | | ITL 3 | TLD34 Greater Manchester South West | | Local authority | Trafford | | Electoral ward | Gorse Hill & Cornbrook | | Westminster constituency | Stretford and Urmston | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85311000 - Social work services with accommodation ## Release History - 5 Nov 2018 at 15:44 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3985351b-06d5-477f-bac1-73d453d795fc ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3985351b-06d5-477f-bac1-73d453d795fc 5th November 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=9b4e89a8-0ae1-e811-80ef-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - http://www.trafford.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
