Swansea Council are looking to implement a Framework Agreement for the Provision of Social Care Agency Staff in order to provide a swift, compliant route to cover staffing shortfall within the Child & Family Services Departments. The authority foresees the need for a multi lot framework covering requirements such as Emergency Child Support, Children’s Residential Support Workers and Family Support Workers

Swansea Council require a team of Residential Children’s Workers to provide support to Children at short notice, whilst care planning is undertaken and longer-term arrangements put in place.

Locations will vary depending on the needs of the child, this will generally be within the boundaries of Swansea Council but there may be occasions when support is required out of the county.

The Council will require that the provider be given 24 hours’ notice to assemble a team of staff who have the necessary minimum qualifications and experience required which will be detailed in the Specification. Additional information: The Specification and Tender Documents are currently in development. As a provider, if you have any pertinent input or views on how you would like the framework to be structured or if there is any other important information you think we should know prior to publishing the final contract notice then please contact [email protected] quoting Reference: CCS/24/241
