Provision of residential Children’s Home Service
Torfaen County Borough Council is seeking to commission a residential children’s home service as part of its ongoing commitment to providing exceptional care and support to vulnerable children.
The focus of this service will be rooted in the “Eliminate” agenda, emphasising the elimination of profit-driven motives in favour of prioritising the well-being, development, and prospects of children in need. The selected Service Provider must operate as a not-for-profit organisation or be willing to commit to the following,
a) A commitment to converting to a not-for -profit model, in line with Welsh Government Eliminate Profit Programme, by the deadline of 2027.
b) A willingness to work towards transitioning the running and registration of the home by 2027 to the Local Authority
The primary goal is to create a nurturing and secure environment that promotes the physical, emotional, and psychological growth of the children in residence. The contract specification underscores the importance of a service provider’s dedication to the welfare of the children and their holistic development, ensuring that financial considerations do not compromise the quality of care.
