Soft Market Test - Transitions Services for Young Adults aged 18-25 with Disabilities and/or Complex Needs

As part of Peterborough City Council's (PCC) Corporate Strategy (2025), specifically the Prevention, Independence & Resilience priority, PCC are looking to increase the opportunities for those with disabilities and/or complex needs transitioning into adulthood.

We are seeking to engage with providers who would be interested in delivering services for young adults (18-25 years) with disabilities, where outcomes to be achieved align with the four elements of Preparing for Adulthood:

1. Independent living
2. Employment & careers
3. Community inclusion
4. Good health

This Preliminary Market Engagement is a follow on from a previous Preliminary Market Engagement carried out in August 2025 (Ref: DN785713); this was carried out to understand the current market and inform future service design, and confirmed market interest in delivering services targeted at 18 to 25 year olds with disabilities and/or complex needs.
