Description

The London Borough of Bromley is seeking to commission a provider to deliver specialist children's residential provision via a partnership arrangement. The Provider will deliver a five-bed residential children's home in Bromley for young people aged 11-17 with medium to high levels of need, including those experiencing complex trauma and behavioural challenges. The service will operate 24/7, 365 days a year, with a minimum 1:1 staffing ratio and enhanced support where required. The delivery model is relational, trauma-informed, child-centred, and aligned with Ofsted's Social Care Common Inspection Framework. The Provider will provide integrated care, including emotional wellbeing support, health coordination, and therapeutic interventions, underpinned by a strong safeguarding framework and a dedicated children's home property management team.
