Short Breaks (Play & Leisure) and Domiciliary Care Services for Children with Disabilities Framework
Buyer: Leicestershire County Council
Description
Leicestershire County Council (the Council) has undertaken a procurement process to create a Framework Agreement for the provision of a range of disabled children’s services. The requirement is broken down into 2 lots as described below: Lot 1 - Short Breaks (Play & Leisure) Short Breaks (Play & Leisure) provide opportunities for disabled children and young people to spend time away from their parents and carers, with friends and peers, for positive opportunities. They are intended to promote their positive mental health and emotional well-being. Short Breaks normally occur on a regular and planned basis and should be part of an integrated programme of support which is regularly reviewed. Emergency Short Break provision will need to be provided from time to time. Lot 2 - Domiciliary Care Domiciliary care is a statutory service that the Council has a duty to provide and it relates to the provision of care and support to children and families in their own home (e.g. personal care, meal preparation, moving and handling etc.). The service can only be provided following an assessment of need and if certain thresholds are met. This service is not exclusively for disabled children and young people although they make up the vast majority of service users. The framework covers two broad areas of domiciliary care - domestic tasks and sitting services.
