Care home service - PIN · UK public procurement notice

Islington Council have a number of care home contracts, delivered from council buildings, that expire in the next 4-6 years. We are seeking to engage with innovative and dynamic providers of residential and nursing care home services. The purpose is to understand at this early stage the appetite for delivering care homes services in Islington, as well as the opportunities and challenges in the current supplier market. It is an opportunity for suppliers in the care home market to familiarise with the Islington vision and ambitions to meet the future care needs of Islington residents. Islington’s long term strategy for Adult Social Care Accommodation can be found here. Learn more about Islington Adult Social Care Commissioning here. You will find the updated Market Sustainability Plan and Market Position Statement, which outline the needs, demand and challenges in Islington.

Suppliers (both current and potential new suppliers) are invited to attend a market engagement event where Islington commissioners will share future ambitions and high-level plans. The event offers an opportunity for suppliers to ask questions and network.

The market event will take place via Teams on Wednesday 27 November 2024 from 10 am to 11 am.

Suppliers interested in this opportunity are invited to register your interest by emailing sophia.stevens@islington.gov.uk. Please register your interest by Monday 25 November 2024.

Once registered for the event you will receive joining instructions.
