Extra Care Housing and Social Inclusion

Extra Care: The purpose of the services is to deliver good quality and safe enabling, outcome focused care and support to tenants of 7 schemes, including frail older people, those with dementia, adults with a learning disability, adults with mental ill health, and people with physical and/or sensory disabilities.

Social Inclusion Service: A Social Inclusion service will exist at each of the Extra Care Schemes which will sit alongside and work in partnership with a flexible personalised combined 'Care and Support Service' and the Landlord.

This Service will enhance the well-being of both those residents living in the scheme and other older people (and for The Rise, some middle-aged adults with sight loss) living in the surrounding neighbourhood who can also benefit from some of the opportunities available both within the Extra Care Scheme and the wider community.

The anticipated duration of the contract for all lots is for 4 years with possible extensions of 2 years plus 2 years.

Please note: there is potential that in the future further Extra Care stock may be added in Plymouth to accommodate growing needs and ambition to provide more housing options. Service delivery for this therefore may be added to the relevant contract depending on locality (potentially increasing the estimated total contract values stated).
