Residential Care Services (Learning Disability, Physical Disability and Mental Health Needs), Suppor...

Kent County Council will host a Provider event on 23rd September 2019 in Ashford, Kent.

There will be two identical sessions across the day, giving feedback from the recent ‘Lessons Learnt and Future Planning’ event held in July, and an update on the upcoming Commissioning exercise for Residential and Supported Living Services, Discharge Support Services, and Care & Support in the Home vacancies.

The morning session will be arrival at 09:00 and start at 09:30, with a planned finish of 11.30. The afternoon session will be arrival at 13:00 for a 13:30 start with a planned finish at 15:30. Tea and coffee will be provided throughout the sessions. You will of course only be required to attend either the morning or afternoon session.

As the demand for this event is anticipated to be high, please click on 'Express an Interest in this opportunity' to register your interest in this event. Unfortunately, due to capacity and demand, we will have to restrict each organisation to having a maximum of two delegates at the event. We appreciate that some organisations will deliver both residential and supported living services; therefore, please ensure that any attendees can represent both services.

We would be grateful if you could send an email to Communitysupport@kent.gov.uk by 17:00, Monday 16th September 2019, to confirm which session would be your preference(i.e. morning, afternoon or either if you are flexible). Please also confirm the number of attendees you would like to send, and their names. As stated, places are limited so please ensure that you have received confirmation of your place to avoid disappointment on the day.

Thank you in advance for your support and participation in this event; this is an exciting opportunity to be involved in future Residential and Supported Living provision in Kent.
