Plymouth Adults Care Home Framework

We would like to invite you to attend the market engagement event for the

Plymouth Adults’ Care Home Framework.

Plymouth City Council’s vision for Strategic Commissioning is to support our citizens with additional needs and vulnerabilities to be able to live their lives as independently and vibrantly as they wish to, supported where needed by a diverse range of services and opportunities, designed by the people who use them and delivered by a broad choice of partners. Our commissioning plans draw on our data and system intelligence, existing and emerging plans and strategies, alongside the lived experience of those who use services.

This applies to our commissioned residential and nursing care homes for adults, where we want to make sure that our most vulnerable people are receiving high quality, personalised care, supported by skilled and experienced staff in homes that are safe, warm and welcoming.

The engagement sessions will be held virtually:

• Monday 14 July 2025: 11am – 12 noon (MS Teams virtual)

• Wednesday 16 July 2025 1pm – 2pm (MS Teams virtual)

During the virtual sessions, we will describe our aims in terms of the framework and the procurement activity and timeframes and provide an opportunity for questions and answers.

We are ambitious for our care and support provision in Plymouth to be of high quality, promoting independence as much as possible and enabling our citizens to be able to be cared for safely and with kindness. In order to do this, we need to have effective commissioning arrangement in place for a number of different types of accommodation and care, including residential and nursing care homes for adults.

The formal business case to proceed with procurement was granted approval from Plymouth City Councils Cabinet on 9th September 2024.

To express an interest in attending any of these sessions, please e-mail: JointCommissioning@plymouth.gov.uk with your details and preferred date in order that you can be included in the meeting register. The link to the virtual events will be sent to you prior to the event.
