    Brief

    St Helens Borough Council is seeking expressions of interest from experienced suppliers to deliver shared lives services for residents aged 18 and over. This opportunity involves expanding the council's existing respite care offer to include a comprehensive shared lives programme that supports residents with diverse health and social care needs. An initial soft market test is being conducted in September 2026 to assess market capacity and supplier capability. Shared lives services provide person-centred care where individuals are supported by approved carers in a home-based setting. Interested suppliers should have demonstrated experience in delivering high-quality shared lives or similar community-based care services. Further details and project information can be accessed via the ProContract portal using reference DN827826 at https://procontract.due-north.com/
