ESCC - RP - Approved List for the Provision of Independent Providers of Foster Care

East Sussex County Council and Brighton and Hove City Council (“the Council”) currently holds an approved list of providers (the “Approved List”) for the provision of Independent Providers of Foster Care Services for 4 years, with an option to extend this by a further 2 years and is seeking to further add to this by reopening the approved list to offer opportunity for providers within the market to apply to join. The list of pre-approved providers will also be made accessible for West Sussex County Council to utilise throughout the duration of the Approved List term. The Council(s) do not guarantee any minimum level of referral activity via this List and reserves the right to utilise alternative routes for comparable provision if required.
