Description
The London Borough of Hackney is looking to commission an experienced Children's Home provider to run and operate 2 new Children’s Homes in Hackney out of Council owned properties. The home will accommodate a maximum of 6 children between them (in a 2 bed and 4 bed home), from the ages of 11 and 17.The Council has a legal obligation under the Children Act 1989 to provide suitable accommodation for children looked after in order to fulfil its corporate parenting responsibilities. We recognise the exceptionally challenging staffing climate in relation to support work and residential care staff, as well as the complexities and challenges around OFSTED registration. As a result of this, our aim is to work in partnership with an experienced provider who is already delivering OFSTED registered children's homes services. Commissioning an experienced partner provider with an established staff and management pool, means that we are able to enhance the quality of experience and care for children looked after. We want to build a partnership with a provider who has a track record of delivering good and outstanding homes to help us deliver excellent services for children looked after in Hackney. The maximum duration of the contract will be seven years, comprising an initial period of five years with the option to extend for a further two years (5+1+1).
