The event will take place on Wednesday 2nd August 2023 at 13:00 via Microsoft Teams. Interested parties must confirm attendance by emailing michelle.chambers@medway.gov.uk by mid-day on the 1st August 2023.

The procurement process is in the planning stage, with an engagement end date set for 1st August 2023. This opportunity is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise organisations (VCSEs) with experience in providing domiciliary care services. Businesses that can deliver tailored care packages promoting independence and enhancing mental and physical wellbeing would be well-suited to compete. The procurement process for the live-at-home service offers a contract value of £50,000,000 in GBP, with multiple delivery addresses including those within the United Kingdom and internationally. ## Notice The support to live at home service will provide care and support to people in their own home and to those living in the five Medway Extra Care schemes.
