This contract falls under the service industry category and involves social work services with accommodation. The procurement was conducted using a direct method, classified as below threshold without competition, and has been completed as of 29 September 2025.

The process employed the light-touch regime and marks an active contract award to the Royal Mencap Society. The contract period spans from 29 September 2025 to 31 March 2029, with options available for commissioning tailored care and support packages based on individual client needs through regular reviews. The service delivery extends across various regions in the United Kingdom.

This contract provides significant opportunities for entities in the social care sector, especially those specialising in services for individuals with learning disabilities.
