### ONLINE MARKET ENGAGEMENT EVENT

Leicester City Council is recommissioning its Community Opportunities services, potentially for people aged 18 and over, located within the boundary of the city of Leicester. This new service will include services that have previously been referred to as ‘day care’, ‘community opportunities’ or ‘flexible short breaks.

Further to the Soft Market Testing currently being undertaken by Leicester City Council (the Authority) as part of the commissioning process for Community Opportunities, the commissioners of this service are keen to hold an Online Market Engagement Event.

The Online Market Engagement Event is being held on Wednesday 31st March 2021 commencing at 10.30 a.m. and is anticipated to end at 12.30 p.m. The event will be conducted online via Microsoft Teams.

The event will give potential providers and other stakeholders the opportunity to express their interests and feed in their views about the potential service model and service definitions. The commissioners will use the information to appraise options and further develop the specification.

Our strategic intention for community opportunities services is to commission high quality, outcome-focussed services that offer meaningful activities that support people to live healthily and independently in their communities and reduce social isolation. The type, location and timing of support will vary depending on individual needs and aspirations; some people may wish to attend services at a fixed location in the daytime, some may wish to receive support at home to help with daily living skills or to give their carer a break, whilst others may wish to attend activities or services in the community, including in the evening or at weekends. Some may wish to have a service which combines two or more elements.

It's anticipated that at this event, pre-engagement information will be discussed in respect of:

- The idea of peer support/self-help groups to promote independence
- Key cost drivers
- Home support/carer breaks
- Flexibility of people moving between potential Lots
- Potential evening and weekend service
- Addressing questions raised in the Soft Market Testing. Further details regarding the Soft Market Testing currently being undertaken by the Authority for Community Opportunities can be found by copying and pasting the following web link into your web browser:
