Geographically, this contract covers multiple regions within the United Kingdom, including UKJ35, UKJ36, and UKJ37. This procurement, which has reached the award stage as of 30th July 2026, entailed a selective method under an existing framework agreement. The contract was awarded on 15th July 2026, has a significant growth potential with a gross value of £416,000, and has provision for renewal, allowing extensions that could substantially increase the total contract value. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social care services, particularly those equipped to provide enhanced support for children with disabilities. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like Belrose Limited, trading as Bluebird Care Winchester, Eastleigh & Romsey, exemplify the type of organisations well-suited for this contract, especially those with expertise in delivering personalised care solutions that go beyond conventional domiciliary care. The potential for market development and innovation in service delivery methods makes this tender an attractive opportunity for businesses aiming to expand their presence in specialised care services, especially given its light-touch regime that encourages innovative service models. ## 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. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/072279-2026 | | Notice type | UK6 - Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Award under framework | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 30 Jul 2026 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 14 Jul 2026 | | Contract period | 31 Aug 2026 - 31 Aug 2030 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £416,000 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HAMPSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | WINCHESTER | | Post town | Southampton | | Postcode | SO23 8UJ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ3 Hampshire and Isle of Wight | | ITL 3 | TLJ36 Central Hampshire | | Local authority | Winchester | | Electoral ward | St Michael | | Westminster constituency | Winchester | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | BELROSE LIMITED T/A BLUEBIRD CARE WINCHESTER, EASTLEIGH & ROMSEY | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 30 Jul 2026 at 14:12 - Award - UK6 - Contract Award Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/072279-2026 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/072279-2026 30th July 2026 - Contract award notice on Find a Tender ## Notice URLs - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/api/1.0/ocdsReleasePackages/ocds-h6vhtk-0603f0 - https://www.hants.gov.uk/ - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
