The provision of a specialist care and supported living service for an individual

Durham County Council has completed the award stage of a procurement process for the provision of a specialist care and supported living service designed for the benefit of an individual service user. The contract, titled "Provision of a Specialist Care and Supported Living Service for an Individual," falls under the health and social work services category and is situated within the UKC14 region of the United Kingdom. This procurement, dated 7 August 2025, was pursued through a direct method, below the threshold, meaning it did not involve competitive tendering.

The service commenced on 1 June 2025 and is set to conclude on 31 March 2026. This opportunity presents significant potential for growth, particularly for businesses specialising in health and social care services that can deliver tailored, personal support solutions. Companies with expertise in managing specialised care services, particularly those experienced in the light-touch regime, will find this tender appealing.

The awarded contract, valued at over £56,000 gross, was secured by Compassionate Care and Support (North East) Ltd, a large-scale business already known within the region. The provision offers opportunities for businesses in the sector to leverage similar chances, enhancing their service offerings and expanding their presence in the sub-central government domain.
