Tender description

Extra Care Housing services are purpose-built developments designed to enable older people to maintain their independence by having their own front door and tenancy while living within a supportive community environment. These schemes offer opportunities for social engagement alongside access to on-site care and support services. Cheshire East Council currently commissions the continuous on-site care provision within four Extra Care Housing schemes across the borough. The current care contracts are due to end on the 31st August 2027 and it is envisioned that tender for future contracts will go live in February 2027. As part of our ongoing service development, we are keen to engage with providers who have experience of delivering care within these settings and to learn from their expertise.

Completed questionnaires should be returned to CE.Contracts@cheshireeast.gov.uk by 17:00pm Thursday 27th August 2026. Keywords: vulnerable , extra care support, elderly, independence

About the buyer

Cheshire East Council is a local authority procuring for the Cheshire East borough, with its own Corporate Procurement Unit handling contracts and quotations. Tender opportunities are advertised on The Chest e-tendering portal, the council's route to market for open competitions. Larger contracts above the public procurement threshold also appear on Find a Tender, the government's central digital platform. Smaller purchases follow a risk-based sourcing approach, using either a request for quotation or an existing public sector framework. Contracts are also listed on the North West Contracts register, giving suppliers visibility across the wider region.

UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).

Over the past 5 years, most of Cheshire East Council's contract awards have been in transport services, construction work and software and information systems.
