Support at Home

Leicestershire County Council (LCC) carried out a public procurement process titled "Support at Home," classified under the industry category of health and social work services. The location for this procurement is Leicestershire, within the UK's East Midlands region (UKF2). The process, conducted under an open procedure, focused on commissioning a provider to meet the non-personal care needs of individuals with eligible social care requirements.

This includes services such as cleaning, shopping, gardening, and laundry. The procurement has reached the award stage, with Enrych Ltd awarded the contract. The award was signed on 15th July 2025, valued at £1,852,500.

Despite being complete, it initially received a substantial number of bids, with 97 submitted for consideration. This tender provides significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as evidenced by Enrych Ltd's existing scale. Businesses specialising in non-medical services related to health and social care, or those with experience in collaboration with local councils, would find this tender particularly beneficial.

The focus on non-personal services negates the need for Care Quality Registration, broadening the potential supplier pool to a diverse array of service providers who can effectively partner with public institutions like the Leicestershire County Council.
