About

Lancashire County Council awarded a contract to Access Community Services Ltd, Royal National Institute for Deaf People T/A Action on Hearing Loss, Affinity Support People Ltd, Affinity Trust, Alternative Futures Group Ltd, Autism Initiatives UK, and Nestor Pri for the provision of learning disability supported living services under the national Transforming Care Agenda.

The agreement, valued at AUD 150,000,000, was established as an interim flexible agreement for an initial one-year term with an option to extend for up to three years, enabling the commissioning of community placements for individuals with learning disabilities and/or autism who display challenging behaviour, including those with mental health conditions, to prevent or follow in-patient admissions.

Providers were required to be CQC-registered for personal care, and social value was incorporated into the service specification and evaluation.
