CPU 1761 Semi-Independent Accommodation and Support for Looked after Young People - Framework

Nottingham City Council (NCC) has a statutory duty to provide sufficient accommodation for its Looked After Children. For those young people aged 16 years old and above, it is often appropriate to provide this accommodation within a semi-independent setting, in order to successfully prepare young people for independent living post 18.

NCC?s Commissioning and Sufficiency Strategy for Children in Care Placements commits to providing every young person with the best possible placement, which meets their needs, wishes and feelings, and provides them with the opportunity to thrive and achieve. In line with this, NCC is seeking to continue improving its semi-independent offer for young people by commissioning outcomes-focused accommodation and support services from providers who will ensure that each young person transitions from their service as a resilient, self-sufficient adult.

To achieve this, in addition to NCC?s own semi-independent provision, NCC are seeking to enter into a contracted Framework arrangement with external providers for the supply of these services. It is essential that these new arrangements deliver:

Improved outcomes

Consistent accommodation and support quality Continued local sufficiency Excellent value for money
