Block Care Home Beds

Brighton and Hove City Council has completed a procurement process for the "Block Care Home Beds" service, aiming to provide beds and associated care services in a residential or nursing home under a block contract. This process falls under the health and social work services industry category and is located in the South East region of England, specifically the UKJ21 area.

The contract, valued at £313,500, was awarded through a direct procurement method without competition, indicating a below-threshold light-touch regime. Important dates for this contract include its start on 1st July 2025 and completion by 30th June 2026, with the award officially signed on 1st July 2025. The procurement stage is complete, with the contract granted to ANAVO CARE (HOVE) LTD, an SME supplier based in Leatherhead.

Given the focus on delivering consistent, good quality, and person-centred care, businesses that prioritise these values, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), would be well-suited to compete in similar future opportunities. Providers who can ensure continuous improvement and engage effectively with key partners to maintain or achieve a high Care Quality Commission (CQC) rating will likely find this sector advantageous for driving growth and strengthening their service portfolio.
