Overview
This is not a cash grant. It is an accreditation process that lets homecare providers join Nottingham City Council's list of accredited suppliers, so you can deliver homecare services to the Council. It suits established homecare organisations that already work in or near Nottingham. The process is ongoing. The accreditation list is open every 6 months, so you can apply when it opens. To be eligible, your organisation must have a local base within 15 miles of Nottingham City. You must be registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC). The CQC must already have visited you, and your CQC rating must be above inadequate. You apply online through the East Midlands Tenders web portal at www.eastmidstenders.org. If you have not registered your organisation on the system, you will need to do that first. You can then go to the Accreditation application page and click 'Login and Register an interest in this opportunity' to carry on. One practical point to keep in mind. A new provider that has not yet had a CQC visit does not meet the entry rules, so you cannot apply until that has happened. The same page also lists a separate accreditation route for residential and nursing care homes, which is also applied for through the East Midlands Tenders portal. This listing covers homecare only.
