Supported Living at Brickfields

Description

This is an invitation to tender for Supported Living services at Brickfields.
The Council has identified that there is a current lack of appropriate supported living services for people with physical disability and/or acquired brain injury in Brighton and Hove (the "city"), meaning people often have to go out of the city or live in inappropriate residential services. Therefore, the Council is developing a new supported living service in Hove. 
The new development in Ingram Crescent, Hove will provide 28 self-contained flats for people with physical disability and acquired brain injury. The building will be wheelchair accessible throughout and will have communal space and facilities for staff on site. The construction of the site is due to be completed in spring 2026.   
The Registered Provider (landlord function) will be identified separately by the Council and it will be key for the chosen support provider to agree to work effectively with the nominated Registered Provider to deliver an efficient and joined-up service.
The Successful Provider will provide a 24-hour Supported Living Service where support is provided for up to twenty-nine Individuals who have Physical Disability and/or Acquired Brain Injury.
There will be four units within the Service that are specifically for 18-25 year olds, and two units that would be suitable for people with bariatric needs. There will be one two-bedroom unit.  
The Provider will provide outcome focused support that meets the aims and goals agreed with each Individual. The Provider will provide person-centred support, a strengths-based approach and promote positive risk taking. The Provider will work in a creative way to address people's needs and outcomes in their Care and Support Plans.  
The Provider shall deliver the Service in accordance with the requirements of the Care Quality Commission (CQC) or any successor organisation.
