Opportunity Overview
The service will deliver all Suffolk County Council's statutory advocacy for eligible adults, children & young people. Some non-statutory advocacy will be procured under the same contract for eligible adults, children & young people.
Suffolk County Council's current contract for independent all-age advocacy ends on 31/03/2027. We are procuring a replacement service to start 01/04/2027. The contract will be for 3 years with the option to extend for up to 24 months, however the impact of Local Government Reform and the creation of 3 unitary authorities in Suffolk from 01/04/2028 may require the service to split into smaller geographical areas with potential impact on finance, activity and reporting.
Total cost over 5 years is approx. £4,500,000. Any VAT will be at the appropriate rate where chargeable, and we understand these services are exempt.
