Thurrock Council is seeking to engage with the market regarding a potential contract for domiciliary care and wellbeing services in Locality 2 (Aveley, South Ockendon and Purfleet). We are seeking partners who can help us to meet the needs of people who are eligible for support under the Care Act 2014. This support is to enable them to live independently within their own home and may include traditional models of care such as Domiciliary Care. However, we are also keen to explore how the delivery model may change throughout the contract including in response to testing different ideas that either yourself as a Partner and/or those that use your service have. As such, the Council is hosting a virtual market engagement event on 28th April 2026 to discuss this opportunity further.
