Islington’s Strategic Commissioning and Adult Social Care Market Position Statement 2021-2024 sets out its commitment to ensuring that people with learning disabilities are supported to live as independently as possible, in their local communities and close to friends and family. The re-commissioning of the care and support contract for residents at the Dingley Road scheme will ensure that a new provider will be able to provide continuity of support for existing tenants alongside offering high quality care and support for any new residents who

move into the scheme. Additional information: The contract will be funded through existing social care budgets on a core contract value. The current core contract value for the service is £177,040 per annum. Therefore, the maximum estimated total cost of the core contract will be £1,062,240.

In addition to the core annual budget the successful provider will be responsible for managing the individual service funds (ISFs) for residents residing at the scheme. The current annual budget for ISFs for residents residing at the scheme is £109,565. However, the amount paid to the provider is based on the actual need of the client and the ISF budget will be subject to change (both up and down) according to subsequent changes in need for each client. The ISF (lead) provider can charge up to £20 per month per client to manage their ISF. The allowance for this is already calculated within the current ISF budget for residents residing at the scheme of £109,565.
