Tender Advert

Supported Living services for people with a learning disability and / or Autism.

East Sussex County Council is seeking to work with a suitably qualified provider of services, to deliver a supported living scheme to people with a learning disability and/or autism. The form of this tender comprises the core care and support contract, as well as the expectation to take on the lease of two properties for a concurrent duration, in which to run the contract.

We look forward to being able to work with providers that have the ability to meet the requirements of CQC in showing clear differentiation between a housing and care and support provider, as per the release in October 2015 “Housing with care”, (Guidance on regulated activities for providers of supported living and extra care housing).
