Autism Support Service

Autism is one of the fastest-growing areas of need in Birmingham. There are over 4,000 school-aged children with an autism diagnosis across the city, which is a higher prevalence than national averages, indicating a significant local need. In 2022 autism had increased by 25% over three years. Throughout the UK autism prevalence in children is estimated at 1–3% of the population, with recent studies suggesting 1 in 36 children aged eight years have an autism diagnosis. The commissioned service will provide a joint working model within the Trust Early Help Service. The Early Help service consists of one Targeted Family Help team and a Voluntary sector team in each of the 10 districts across Birmingham and the commissioned service will also need to align with The Family Hub offer. The commissioned service will provide direct interventions to children and young people with autism and their families. The specialist interventions will be specifically related to support associated with the child or young person’s autism. The brief will also include upskilling practitioners within the Early Help service, offering advice, guidance and training on autism enabling practitioners to respond effectively to families, this will include providing shadowing opportunities for recently trained staff from the partnerships. The duration of the contract will be for one year, with the option to extend for up to two years (1 + 1 + 1), commencing on 1st April 2026. The contract will be reviewed on an annual basis with a break clause after March 2027, and each subsequent year; with the continuation of the contract based on funding availability and performance.

Reopening the Home Care Support Framework (Flexible Framework)

Bracknell Forest Council is reopening the Home Care Framework. The Council is inviting applicants to join the Framework for the provision of home care services. The Framework is used by the Council as a means to advertise, tender and award 'call-off agreements' for services that have common characteristics e.g. packages of care. The original framework commenced in April 2022. The framework could be reopened at the Council's discretion. The expiry of the framework term is 30 September 2027. Successful tenderers are anticipated to enter the Framework from January 2026. Once admitted to the Framework, Providers will be able to bid for any packages that are offered to Framework Providers where they are able to meet the Council's requirements. This will be a fixed rate framework. The estimated value of new packages to be awarded via the Framework from January 2026 until the expiry (30th September 2027) is estimated to be in the region of £250K. This is an anticipated value that is subject to demand and could increase dependant on service requirements. Please note that being awarded a place on the Framework does not guarantee any volume of work. The service is intended to support individuals aged 18+ who live within Bracknell Forest and meet the eligibility threshold for care and support as set out in the Care and Support (Eligibility Criteria) Regulations 2014 for the Care Act 2014. Individuals will have a range of care needs, including complex and challenging behaviours. The service includes activities such as personal care, discharge to assess and supports the reablement of individuals following hospital admission. Although provision is for 18+ this specific service is primarily and foremost a regulated activity for the 65+, delivered by CQC registered providers. Support to individuals with Learning Disabilities (referred to as 'Supported Living' in Bracknell Forest), is provided through a set of separate market arrangements and so is not in scope for this tender. The Council is making use of the allowances of the Light Touch Regime of the Public Contracts Regulations allowing for the procurement procedures to be run in a way that does not conform to standard procedures so long as the principles of transparency and equal treatment are maintained. Additional information: Organisations must register their interest on the South East Business Portal https://sebp.due-north.com in order to receive any changes or notifications issued by the Council during this tender process. The Council will not be held responsible for lack of communication to any organisation which does not register their interest. Clarification questions must be sent via messaging on the South East Business Portal site. The Council reserves the right not to award the contract in whole or in part, to cancel or amend the tender process and does not bind itself to accept any tender. The Council shall not be liable under any circumstances for any costs, charges or expenses incurred by any bidder or prospective bidder in responding to this notice or in taking part in this procurement process. https://procontract.due-north.com Associated tender documents are found at the above website.
