This project involves developing new supported living accommodation for adults with diverse care and support needs. The procurement stage is currently in the planning phase, with key milestones including an engagement end date of September 19, 2024. The project falls under the industry category of Construction Work and offers opportunities for Housing Providers and Care & Support Providers to collaborate for a 5-year contract term, extendable up to 10 years. Businesses in the not-for-profit Housing Association sector and those registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care within a 45-minute drive of Bracknell Forest are well-suited to compete for this tender. The project aims to create a formal partnership between a Housing Provider and a Care and Support Provider, offering opportunities for organisations with expertise in housing management and social care services. Interested providers meeting the specified criteria are invited to participate in the market engagement event scheduled for July 9, 2024, to gain insights on the site location, service requirements, and the procurement process. ## Notice Bridgewell Market Warming Event July 2024 Bracknell Forest Council is currently developing new supported living accommodation for adults with care and support needs, known as Bridgewell, located in Birch Hill, Bracknell Forest, RG12 7HA. The accommodation consists of four distinct, self-contained 5-bedroom apartments. Each apartment is accessed by its own front door, via a central lobby. Each bedroom has an ensuite bathroom and there is a shared living room, kitchen, and dining room. It is anticipated that adults supported to live at Bridgewell will have some or all of the following in relation to their care and support needs: learning disabilities, health and physical disabilities, profound multi learning disabilities, neurodiversity, sensory impairment, dementia. Adults may have several co-occurring conditions such as mental and physical health needs and it is therefore a requirement of the service that the Service Provider can deliver support to people with a wide range of complex care and support needs.

Lot 2: Care & Support Provision (Support Provider). The Housing Provider and the Care and Support Provider will work in formal partnership as either a single entity (one organisation with separate Landlord and Care and Support functions) or separate organisations with a service level agreement or management agreement in place. Bidders will not be permitted to bid for a single Lot. The initial contract term is 5 years, with the option to extend by a further 3 years + 2 years (total 10 years), subject to agreement.
