HAC6116 Activity Based Learning Disability Opportunities

Description

Tower Hamlets currently purchases centre-based day support for 257 adults with a learning disability across 6 Providers operating within borough boundaries. This provision is transacted via an activity-based framework contract with different prices for standard, enhanced and complex levels of support. The current annual expenditure via the framework is projected at £5.9m in 2024-25. In addition, the borough purchases 15 Tower Hamlets centre-based placements at £158,012 outside the established framework and in the region of 63 non-building-based placements at approximately £410k. Non-centre based provision is usually delivered in the form of 1:1 support and often outside of core day provision hours. There is 1 provider operating. Both centre-based and non-centre based provision delivers a range of personalised support with life skills, budgeting, access to education, training, employment, clinical and health care services, and social interactions to develop or maintain independence within the community. Activities are delivered through a range of varied programmes personalized to meet individual needs, choice and aspiration. The Borough is seeking to establish a new activity-based contract from which the provision of day support for adults with a learning disability can be purchased when the current framework ends in February 2026. Once established the Council will only spot purchase provision from organisations that have been successful and are listed as approved contracted suppliers and hold a contract with the Authority.
