About

Reading Council is seeking a supplier to establish a robust, evidence-led prevention framework for Adult Social Care to manage demand, reduce waiting times and implement sustainable system change following CQC feedback published 10 October 2025 that highlighted delays in assessments and reviews, inconsistent carers’ assessments and long delays in direct payments. The project aims to improve outcomes for residents, reduce escalation into statutory services and ease pressure on the Adult Social Care front door, including the Advice and Wellbeing Hub and hospital pathways, building on sector-led improvement work by the IDeA's Partners in Care and Health (PCH), the Social Care Institute for Excellence and other organisations.
