About

Gloucestershire County Council awarded a contract to Apetito Ltd for the provision of a subsidised community meals service, delivering nutritionally balanced hot meals to older people and people with disabilities living in their own homes.

The service is a short-term intervention, typically provided while a customer recovers from an illness, setback, or completes a period of reablement, with a focus on maximising personal independence and enabling people to stay in their own homes for as long as possible.

The contract, valued at £1,100,000, was for 3 years with a potential 2-year extension, and the contractor works in partnership with the Authority to implement the Community Support Model.
