F13401(M) Supported Living Meet the Buyer Event (Virtual)

Following on from a positive response to our Request for Information, which closed in December 2020, we invite the respondents and our wider community of care and housing providers to join a virtual 'Meet the Buyer' event.

Hosted by commissioning and procurement colleagues of the newly merged NHS Hampshire, Southampton and Isle of Wight Clinical Commissioning Group, this will take place on Tuesday 20th April 2021 from 2 - 4pm.

Transforming Care - Fit for the Future

The NHS Long Term Plan renewed the commitment to reduce the over reliance on inpatient beds and strengthen the community infrastructure to support people with learning disabilities, autism and mental health conditions to live well in their communities. NHS England continue to prioritise capital funding to support the delivery of the Transforming Care Programme, now Learning Disability and Autism Programme (LADP), to deliver the national service model as set out in Building the Right Support.

The CCG wishes to engage the market in developing an exciting and dynamic supported living programme for the newly integrated CCG and will be setting out proposals for a contract framework planned to be tendered in 2021. We are keen to include small, medium and national enterprises in a collaborative model, who can play a part in meeting the highly individualised complex needs of the population, served by the regional Learning Disability and Autism Programme.

To book your place, please go to the SoEPS eTendering portal to access, complete and submit a registration form via portal message - see below for details.

The closing date for registrations is Midday on Monday 19 April 2021, however, documentation (eg indicative specification) and the MS Teams link for the event, will be made available to all registered organisations after Midday, 13th April 2021. Therefore early registration is advised to allow time to read the documentation in preparation for your contribution on the day.

Thank you and we look forward to you joining us.
