Provision of Countywide Integrated Short Breaks Service for Disabled Children and Young People Aged 0-19
Awarded 30 Sep 2019
About
Buckinghamshire County Council awarded a contract to Action for Children Services Ltd for the provision of a jointly commissioned Countywide Integrated Short Breaks Service for Disabled Children and Young People aged 0-19 years, on behalf of Buckinghamshire County Council and Buckinghamshire Clinical Commissioning Group.
The service includes targeted and specialist delivery levels, with specialist delivery including a residential short breaks service, and supports the councils in meeting statutory duties regarding short breaks.
The provider will support the transformation of short breaks by helping more disabled children and young people access universal service provision, targeting resources to those most in need, and reducing reliance on buildings-based residential short breaks.
Three Local Authority owned buildings will be leased to the provider, two specifically for residential short breaks.
A lead provider model is sought, encouraging collaboration with small voluntary organisations and specialist providers for the targeted service.
The provider will develop an assessment tool for access to universal and targeted services, manage allocation of the targeted service, support the development of personal budgets for short breaks, and provide child-specific training for short breaks providers in the county.
The contract value is £15,843,552.
