All providers are on the Open Select List (OSL) for Children's Residential Care Provision.
For more information on the OSL, please see:
https://professionals.lincolnshire.gov.uk/children%E2%80%99s-commissioning.
Where there is only one price listed, this is because there is only one placement with said provider.
We do not routinely categorise placements as complex, solo etc. but have indicated where the price is impacted by specific staffing ratios e.g. 2:1 etc.
We have provided information for the last full financial year (2024/25). Where a provider did not have a placement in that financial year, but has subsequently taken a placement in 2025/26, we have included that figure, denoted with [25/26] as listed above. - Reference number
