This initiative falls under the category of Other community, social and personal services, based in Leeds, England. The procurement is at the Tender stage, with a deadline for submissions set for 22nd March 2022. The contract period is scheduled to commence on 1st April 2022 and conclude on 31st March 2023. The estimated value of the contract is £72,000, and the procurement method is a limited competitive quotation process. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in social work and health services. Companies proficient in developing person-centred planning frameworks, fostering community integration for individuals with learning disabilities and autism, and addressing long-term life planning needs would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. Ensure your business is prepared to demonstrate expertise in creating supportive environments for this demographic to leverage this opportunity effectively. ## Notice Children, young people and adults with a learning disability and/or autism have the right to the same opportunities as anyone else to live a satisfying and valued lives, and to be treated with dignity and respect. They should have a home within their community, be able to develop and maintain relationships, and get the support they need to live healthy, safe and rewarding lives. Thinking about the future is an important aspect of person-centred care planning for all people within inpatient settings, which should aim to build on the person's strengths and skills and help them consider what they want most in life as they get older. This would complement C(E)TRs by providing greater clarity about the person's aspirations, assisting commissioners to ensure suitable services are developed. Life planning is a key element to support delivery of the programme and should include: * Building friendships and support networks: describing the benefits of having more people involved in the person's life and ideas for achieving this. * Keeping an eye on things: how to ensure the person has a good life and is well supported. * Talking about difficult subjects: ideas about how to talk about subjects that can be difficult to raise. * Making financial plans * Housing and support: information about the different housing options for the person and how to get the support they need * Making a plan for emergencies * Making a plan for the future: drawing together the person's ideas to make a plan for their future The outcome of this work will be to have a clear person-centre plan for each of the identified people, with a clear understanding by the person, their family/carer/advocate, commissioner and provider of the next steps in order to achieve their pathway to a home in the community.
