## Summary

Hampshire County Council has successfully completed a procurement process for the care support services intended for children with disabilities, under the title "Care Support Services for Children with a Disability CS26605B - Enhanced Support". This initiative falls under the public authority - sub-central government industry category and spans several regions in the United Kingdom, notably UKJ35, UKJ36, and UKJ37. Commencing on 1 September 2026, and extending until 31 August 2030, with potential renewals until 31 August 2034, the contract was awarded to Redjacket Specialist Care Ltd for a gross amount of £416,000. The award, marked as "complete", follows a selective procurement approach under a framework, tailored to meet complex needs, and was finalized on 15 July 2026.

This tender represents a valuable opportunity for businesses specializing in innovative and personalised care solutions, particularly those serving children and young people with severe and complex disabilities. Companies with expertise in behavioural management, specialized care needs, or complex interventions would find this contract beneficial. The focus on enhanced support services offers a strategic platform for businesses aiming to expand their service offerings and develop new skills within their workforce, thereby improving not just service delivery but also employee satisfaction. With the involvement of a large and established supplier like Redjacket Specialist Care Ltd, the awarded contract highlights the potential for business growth and market development in the care sector under Hampshire County Council's light touch regime procurement.

## Notice

Hampshire County Council Children's Services commissions care support for children and young people with disabilities. The children and young people requiring care support services will include those with severe disabilities such as learning disabilities, physical disabilities, autistic spectrum conditions, behaviour that challenges and complex physical or mental health needs. The Services are part of a holistic support package for the child / young person that meets identified outcomes as part of a Care Plan as agreed by the Council's County Allocation Panel. This Service is part of Hampshire County Council's Children's Services Department's continuum of services which support children and young people with disabilities. Care support is a Tier 4 specialist service, which can be offered to a family following a social care assessment where the Disabled Children's Team criteria has been met and/or an unmet social care need has been identified. This Service aims to facilitate the development of the market to deliver services in new and more personalised ways rather than the conventional delivery of domiciliary care which in turn will enhance the skills of staff, potentially offering greater job satisfaction, in delivering the Service and improving the experience of the Service User. This Notice relates to a call off procedure for Care Support Services for Children with a Disability - Enhanced Support. This relates to a child or young person who has more profound and complex needs due to their behaviour and/or disability and as such needs an enhanced care service and/or a Support Worker with additional training in order to meet those needs. Such needs may include behavioural management training, specific care needs or interventions. Any potential value will be awarded through subsequently awarded Individual Service Contracts rather than at this call off stage.
