This project falls within the social care sector and is based in Telford, located in the West Midlands, United Kingdom. The procurement method is an open procedure, with a procurement stage encompassing the planning of a workshop aimed at developing a service specification, which will subsequently lead to a tender going live in early April 2016. Interested parties should note that the tender period concludes on 11th May 2016, while the contract is scheduled to commence on 1st October 2016 and run until 30th September 2019. The estimated contract value ranges from £100,000 to £500,000. This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and volunteer community sector enterprises (VCSEs) that can deliver innovative service provisions that foster community inclusion and promote independence among older adults. Businesses specialising in social work, community services, and those with expertise in addressing the needs of individuals with sensory impairments or dementia will find this tender particularly relevant. Engaging in this initiative not only aids in community enhancement but also expands the service providers' portfolio in the public sector. ## Notice NOTE: This notice was updated on 29 January 2018 for the following reason: Was not TenderedSocial Value - Reducing Social Isolation 10 March 2016 1.30-4.30pm The Glebe Centre, Glebe Street, Wellington, TF1 1JP The Council is inviting you to take part in a workshop to consider reducing social isolation in Telford and Wrekin.
