Mental Health recovery and rehabilitation accommodation-based support and floating support services aim to support mental health service users away from reliance on hospital and residential provision towards more enabling and cost-effective services such as supported accommodation, support in the community and targeted support towards independent living. The LBB Mental Health Flexible Support Service contract was due to expire on 30 September 2024. The current contract had been in place since 1 October 2019 and had an estimated value of £319k per annum. The contract had no further options to extend and a cumulative value of approximately £1,890k over the 5-year term.

The South East London Integrated Care Board (SELICB) Adult Mental Health Residential and Supported Accommodation Services contract was due to expire on 30 September 2024. The current contract had been in place since 1 April 2019 and had an estimated value of £1,432k per annum. The contract had no further extension options remaining and a cumulative value of approximately £6,963k over the 5-year term.

In addition, LBB held individual placement contracts for clients placed into SELICB contracted provision. In 2021/22 the combined annual value of these placements was estimated to be approximately £1.12m per annum. In total these two services had an estimated combined value more than £2.94m per annum.

The Gateway 0 report ACH22018, presented to Executive on 29 June 2022, advised members on the procurement options for future housing support mental health services in Bromley and gained approval to replace the existing service model with a new joint adult mental health recovery and rehabilitation support@home service contract in 2024, underpinned by the section 75 agreement between LBB and SELICB, and with a combined total contract value estimated at £2.66m per annum, split 50:50 between LBB and SELICB.

The report before the Executive sought approval to commence the procurement of the service in accordance with the arrangements set out in the report to commence the new service on 1 October 2024.

 

The report had been scrutinised by the Adult Care and Health PDS Committee at its meeting on 22 November and the Committee had supported the recommendations.
