This would include people with learning disabilities and cognitive impairment. The message from the sector was that they would like practical tools to support better conversations with individuals so that their views and wishes can be understood. They want to support individuals to play an active role in their care and support planning and delivery.The aim of this work is to understand what resources are available that help one to one communication between a worker and an individual when discussing personal outcomes. The resources identified should be ones that specifically support workers to agree what matters to an individual when they have a cognitive impairment and may not always communicate through the spoken word. We also want to under-stand who uses the resources and how well they support the delivery of strengths-based practice.We require a supplier who will conduct research:- to identify what resources are available that support better communication so that workers and individuals can establish what matters most to people. This will specifically include people with a learning disability or living with dementia.- with the key stakeholders, including those with lived experience, to establish if these are resources they use and how well they support conversations and delivery of strengths-based practice- to identify if there are any gaps or requirements for additional resources- to establish if existing resources could be shared more widely, the best ways to do this, and if they are available bi-lingually and in different formats for ex-ample pictures, easy read.* Please download the specification for further detail of the work * ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Sell2Wales | | Latest notice | https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=123639 | | Notice type | S2W Notice - Website Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 13 Oct 2023 | | Submission deadline | 19 Aug 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 31 Aug 2022 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Not specified | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SOCIAL CARE WALES | | Locality | CARDIFF | | Post town | Cardiff | | Postcode | CF10 1EW | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL5 South East Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL52 Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan | | Local authority | Cardiff | | Electoral ward | Cathays | | Westminster constituency | Cardiff South and Penarth | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | WELV CONSULTING | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 73110000 - Research services - 73200000 - Research and development consultancy services - 73210000 - Research consultancy services - 73220000 - Development consultancy services - 79315000 - Social research services ## Release History - 13 Oct 2023 at 15:04 - Award - S2W Notice - Website Contract Award Notice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=123639 - 2 Aug 2022 at 10:13 - Tender - S2W Notice - Website Invitation to Tender Notice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=123639 ## Documents - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Notice/Download/DocumentDownload.aspx?id=AUG406558&idx=10 2nd August 2022 - For Suppliers to fill and return - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Notice/Download/DocumentDownload.aspx?id=AUG406558&idx=11 2nd August 2022 - Appendix 4 - Information on our voice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Notice/Download/DocumentDownload.aspx?id=AUG406558&idx=12 2nd August 2022 - Appendix 5 - Information on our brand - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Notice/Download/DocumentDownload.aspx?id=AUG406558&idx=1 2nd August 2022 - Manyleb y gwaith - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Notice/Download/DocumentDownload.aspx?id=AUG406558&idx=2 2nd August 2022 - Am Cyflenwyr i lenwi a ddychwelyd - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Notice/Download/DocumentDownload.aspx?id=AUG406558&idx=3 2nd August 2022 - Am Cyflenwyr i lenwi a ddychwelyd - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Notice/Download/DocumentDownload.aspx?id=AUG406558&idx=4 2nd August 2022 - Am Cyflenwyr i lenwi a ddychwelyd - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Notice/Download/DocumentDownload.aspx?id=AUG406558&idx=5 2nd August 2022 - Atodiad 4 - Gwybodaeth ar ein llais - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Notice/Download/DocumentDownload.aspx?id=AUG406558&idx=6 2nd August 2022 - Atodiad 5 - Gwybodaeth ar ein brand - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Notice/Download/DocumentDownload.aspx?id=AUG406558&idx=7 2nd August 2022 - Specification of the work - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Notice/Download/DocumentDownload.aspx?id=AUG406558&idx=8 2nd August 2022 - For Suppliers to fill and return - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Notice/Download/DocumentDownload.aspx?id=AUG406558&idx=9 2nd August 2022 - For Suppliers to fill and return ## Notice URLs - http://www.sell2wales.gov.wales - http://www.socialcare.wales ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
