Description

3rd July 2023 at 11am – 12pm LOCATION: Virtual (MS Teams) Surrey County Council (SCC) is looking to commission its Personal Support services and would like to hear from organisations who have experience in this area of provision. This is not an invitation to tender. Following on from previous engagement events, Surrey County Council warmly invites you to take part in our interactive market engagement event for potential and existing providers of Personal Support services. Surrey County Council (SCC) has a statutory duty to support disabled children, young people and their families. Personal Support is part of the short breaks offer but is a specialist service and is only available following assessment. Personal Support is home-based care, primarily used by SCC’s Children with Disabilities team to provide families with respite care (short break), in accordance with their assessed needs. Personal support may also be used to provide other types of support such as emergency or crisis support and support outside the home for children and young people to access and be included in social and leisure actives in their local communities. The purpose of this event will be to: Share with you our vision and priorities for the development of Personal Support provision in Surrey. Learn together about what is working well and what we can improve in how we commission and deliver Personal Support Provision in Surrey. Explore the shared values and ways of working that will help us collaborate effectively in the future, as we begin the process of recommissioning the future Personal Support Provision offer; and Develop a joint understanding of the outcomes for young people that we want to enable through the provision of Personal Support in Surrey SCC would like to invite Providers with relevant experience to register for the Market Engagement Event in relation to Personal Support Provision services. The detailed service requirements are still in the final stages of development, and this Market Event will help to explain some of the decisions and plans we have for the service based on feedback from the previous engagement work. It is anticipated that the tender opportunity will be published by late Summer 2023 through Proactis: https://supplierlive.proactisp2p.com/Account/Login?cid=surreycc# Our context SCC’s aim is to provide Personal Support to children and young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND): to have their needs safely and well met by quality assured services that provide a personalised and child centred approach to the care they provide. to provide parents and carers with support and breaks from their caring responsibilities, so they are better able to look after their own emotional and physical health and provide more sustainable care to their whole family. to respond at short notice where there is an emergency or risk of imminent placement breakdown.
