Torbay Council awarded a contract to Torbay Community Development Trust for the Live Longer Better – Active Lives Torbay 2026 programme, which underpins healthy ageing initiatives across Torbay and contributes to reducing demand on adult social care, housing, and health services.

The contract, valued at £96,200, was directly awarded to the incumbent provider following an Expression of Interest process that indicated procuring the remaining service elements would provide little creativity or financial return and would require Council Public Health staff resource to develop and embed.

The decision to direct award was made to safeguard delivery after Devon ICB notified that it would not continue funding the project into 2026/27, placing the existing work programme and Service Level Agreement at significant risk.

The SLA was reduced by 12 months, with both the SLA and the direct award ending in March 2027, allowing time for a full procurement of an integrated contract for all components to be awarded for a start date of 01/04/2027.
