    Brief

    This framework establishes a network of approved third-party providers delivering semi-independent residential placements and support services for children in care and care leavers. The framework is structured into two specialist lots designed to help young people develop essential life skills, build confidence, and strengthen resilience as they prepare for the transition to fully independent living. Providers will deliver tailored accommodation, mentoring, and practical support to help young people succeed in adulthood. This is an invitation for experienced residential care providers to join the framework and deliver high-quality services to vulnerable young people.
