(Note: Providers who were successful in being awarded a contract previously should not reapply for any Lots they were awarded). The purpose of care and support commissioned through this model is to enable people to live good and fulfilling lives by being supported to achieve the things that are important to them.

Lot Division
1 | Community Support Individuals will have learning disabilities, autism, physical health needs, sensory impairment and/or mental health needs, but will not need support with personal care and end of life care. Individuals may require support with the following: • They may be living independently or with family or friends. • They will need a small number of hours of support each week or month. The level of support may reduce over time as they build confidence and independence. Support may not always need to be provided one-to-one. • Support will include information, advice, practical support and connections to help people to make their own decisions, and to access training, volunteering, employment, social and community activities. • Active avoidance of restrictive and punitive approaches to managing behaviour that challenges, at all times • Positive strategies to manage early warning signs or triggers, e.g., distraction techniques |
2 | Community support with care (regulated) Individuals will have learning disabilities, autism, physical health, sensory impairment or mental health needs and may have personal care needs. They may be living independently, with family and friends, or in registered accommodation. They will need more hours of support each week (28hrs+) than those in Lot 1, but this will not be full-time and may reduce over time as they build their confidence and skills. Providers will have the necessary registration to undertake regulated activities and staff will have skills in relation to Positive Behaviour Support. Support will include access and provision of information, advice, community connections, practical support and personal care support |
4 | Specialist Services and Interventions The primary aim of services delivered under this Lot is to reduce the frequency, intensity and duration of behaviour that challenges, as well as mental health and emotional distress, young people and adults with a learning disability and/or autism. Individuals are likely to have behaviour that challenges, behaviours of destructive nature, experienced trauma, forensic needs or fluctuating mental health needs. Types of need may include persistent oppositional disorder, attachment disorder, mental illness, ADHD etc, characterised by a range of issues: emotional issues e.g., anxiety, low mood, anger/aggression, low resilience, social difficulties, self-harm and depression.
