    Brief

    This framework agreement provides funding to support care providers delivering residential and nursing care services for older people. The opportunity aims to facilitate early adoption of the National Living Wage increase and fee uplifts to address critical recruitment and retention challenges in the care sector, particularly during the winter period when demand is highest. Care providers are invited to participate in this framework to access support mechanisms that enable competitive staffing costs and improved service delivery. This initiative recognizes the sector's workforce pressures and provides financial support to sustain quality care provision.
