## Summary

Warwickshire County Council has concluded a public procurement process to provide a Dementia Day Opportunities Service across the county, which focuses on community health services. The contract, awarded on 27th January 2026, was part of an open procedure procurement method, classified under a light touch regime due to its focus on services. The buying authority, Warwickshire County Council, operates from Shire Hall, Warwick. This contract, with an anticipated start date of 1st April 2026, encompasses a three-year term with provisions for potential two-year extensions, depending on performance and funding. The service is designed for group settings to support individuals diagnosed with dementia in Warwickshire, helping them maintain health and wellbeing while offering respite for carers. Key industry classifications include community health services and other community-focused services, targeted within the UKG13 region of the United Kingdom.

This contract represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in healthcare services, particularly those with expertise in dementia care, to expand within the public sector. Especially suited for organisations with previous experience in delivering large-scale community health initiatives, this opportunity also aligns with entities experienced with meeting the evolving demands of local government service requirements. Successful providers like AGE UK Coventry and Warwickshire, selected for their existing capabilities in delivering similar services, epitomise industry players who can leverage such contracts to reinforce their position in the market. Businesses with the capacity to accommodate potential contract extensions and adapt to legislative and organisational changes are well-positioned to maximise growth through this procurement.

## Notice

Warwickshire County Council (the Council) has commissioned a single provider to deliver a countywide dementia day opportunities service. The provider must be able to demonstrate and evidence to the Council's satisfaction that they are already providing dementia day opportunities in a group setting of a similar size, level of activity and value to this tender opportunity. A Dementia Day Opportunity is defined as a scheduled session of specified duration that is delivered in a dementia friendly building. Sessions are managed by providers and are designed to support a specified number of individuals diagnosed with dementia. Sessions offer individuals living with dementia an opportunity to socialise, engage in meaningful activities, and be supported by trained staff. Day opportunities encourage community inclusion through organised trips and having members of the community visit the centre. The aims of the service are: - To provide high quality, specialist, and person-centred support to individuals diagnosed with dementia. - To provide an opportunity for people with dementia to engage with their community. - To support people with dementia to remain in the community for as long as is appropriate and possible and to prevent unnecessary admissions to hospital and/ or residential or nursing care. The outcomes of the service will help maintain the health, wellbeing, independence, and social inclusion of people diagnosed with dementia whilst providing an opportunity for informal carers to receive organised and planned respite from their caring role. This was an open procedure to commission a dementia day opportunities service within Warwickshire. During the course of the contract period the range and scope of these services may be subject to modification and variation to meet the changing needs and requirements of the Council, potential changes in legislation, changes due to Local Government Reorganisation and the changing demands placed on the Council by its customers.
