Stockport Day Opportunities

Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council · Preliminary market engagement notice on Find a Tender

Opportunity overview

The revised Day Opportunities Framework in Stockport went live in April 2025 with the intention of offering a diverse range of provision aligned with the Care Act 2014. The ambition was to ensure that services were flexible, meaningful, enjoyable and genuinely person-centred in both design and delivery. However, uptake during the initial launch did not achieve the level of diversification expected. Provision has continued to focus predominantly on traditional building-based services. While these services remain valued and needed, Stockport Council aims to build on this foundation by also expanding into community-based and innovative models that further support residents to live “a gloriously ordinary life.” Before reopening the framework to additional providers, the Council proposes undertaking soft market testing—outlined below—to understand the level of interest and capacity among providers who share Stockport’s vision for diverse, flexible and person-centred Day Opportunities.
