Bath and North East Somerset ASC Independent Living Support

The Bath & North East Somerset Council has completed a procurement process to award a contract for the provision of Adult Social Care Independent Living Support. This procurement, managed under the Procurement Act 2023 and employing an open procedure, aligns with the Light Touch Regime. CURO CHOICE has been selected as the supplier, following a competitive process.

The tender falls under the 'Social Work Services' industry category and covers the Bath region, identified as UKK12. The contract, valued at £1,890,000, begins on 1st January 2026 and runs until 31st December 2030, with an optional two-year extension. Key aspects of this project include supporting low-level social care interventions aimed at enhancing independence and well-being among adults and older people.

This tender represents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses skilled in providing flexible and responsive social care services. The focus on maintaining and enhancing independent living, reducing social isolation, and improving general well-being positions businesses that specialise in these areas well to engage with this contract. Companies that can deliver services with a person-centred approach and have experience with substantial public sector contracts are ideally suited to compete, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that can meet the needs within the Bath community effectively.
