Day Services for Younger People Living With Dementia

Leeds City Council is progressing with a procurement process for the provision of day services targeted at younger individuals living with dementia in Leeds. This effort falls under the health and social work services category. Currently in the contract update stage, the procurement was initiated as a tender and is associated with concrete timelines; notably, a contract that commenced on 9th August 2017 will now be extended an additional 18 months, with modification extending services from October 2025 to March 2027.

Services will be delivered within the Leeds area, denoted by region code UKE42, and placed under the overarching contract identification DN252936. The procurement presents opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social work services, particularly those with a focus on dementia care, with Community Links (Northern) Ltd and Inspire North already awarded contract tasks. The amendment anticipates expanding outreach initiatives to foster group participation, which can unlock efficiencies and cost savings.

SMEs located in or nearby Leeds that possess capabilities in community support and specialist care services may find lucrative participation opportunities and establish a firm presence in fulfilling local government demands in the health sector.
