## About this tender

The Council wishes to commission Personalised Support and Care in Prisons and Approved Premises in the County of Staffordshire.

Section 76 of the Act sets out the responsibilities for the provision of care and support for adult prisoners and people residing in approved premises (which include bail accommodation). Where it appears that adults in prison or approved premises have needs for care and support, they should have their needs assessed by the local authority and where they meet eligibility criteria; have services provided by the local authority.

The referral processes for social care have been in place since 2015 however individuals will also have the right to self-refer. There are seven Prisons and also two Approved Premises in Staffordshire for which the Council will have the responsibility to provide Care and Support.
