## Summary

West Berkshire Council has completed a procurement process for the provision of a care and support service in extra care housing schemes, classified under the industry category of health and social work services. The tender, titled "Provision of a Care and Support Service - Extra Care Housing - AWARD," pertains to properties in Newbury, located in the South East region of the United Kingdom. The procurement method was an open procedure and has now reached the award stage, with key dates including the end of the tender period on 20 March 2023 and contract commencement on 1 October 2023, running until 30 September 2028. The awarded contract, valued at £7,100,000, was given to Care Outlook Ltd and covers Lot 1: Audrey Needham House and Redwood House, and Lot 2: Alice Bye Court.

The tender offers abundant opportunities for businesses involved in health and social care services, particularly those specialising in support for disabled, frail, or vulnerable individuals who wish to remain independent in supported housing. Companies with expertise in providing high levels of care within a holistic framework would be especially well-suited to compete for such contracts, ensuring that housing and care needs are comprehensively met. The emphasis on adaptable, secure accommodation to enhance quality of life makes this an excellent growth opportunity for businesses aiming to expand within the social work sector.

## Notice

Extra care housing is designed with the needs of people whose disabilities, frailty, vulnerability or health needs make ordinary housing unsuitable, but who do not need to or want to move to long term residential care. Older people make up the majority of tenants in WBC Extra care housing schemes although there are some vulnerable younger adults that benefit from living in the schemes. Extra care housing should provide a real alternative to a residential care home provision and or unsuitable housing and should be seen as a home for life. It provides accommodation that has sufficient on site care and support yet allowing older people and vulnerable adults regardless of the level of need to be independent, enjoy an inclusive lifestyle and have their housing and care needs met in a holistic manner. For West Berkshire Council, Extra Care housing means accommodation that provides enhanced care and support for older people and vulnerable adults who have increased care needs within the safety and security of supported accommodation that is accessible and adaptable for the future. This is for the provision of a care and support service for people living in Extra Care Housing in the following schemes: Lot 1 Audrey Needham House and Redwood House Lot 2 Alice Bye Court
