Description

The London Borough of Barking and Dagenham is commissioning an Extra Care Service for older residents in Barking and Dagenham. We see Extra Care as an important part of our offer to older people in the Borough, enabling older people to live as independently as possible in the community, with care and support provided on site and tailored to individual’s needs and preferences through a person-centred, strengths-based approach. We want our Extra Care schemes to be a part of an engaging and lively community in Barking and Dagenham, delivered by an experienced Extra Care provider, with activities that are directed by, and co-produced with the residents who live there. We would like the service to work closely with the community and voluntary sector and link in with facilities and organisations in the Borough and ensure that schemes have robust connections to their locality and make maximum use of the resources available

Autism Support Service

Autism is one of the fastest-growing areas of need in Birmingham. There are over 4,000 school-aged children with an autism diagnosis across the city, which is a higher prevalence than national averages, indicating a significant local need. In 2022 autism had increased by 25% over three years. Throughout the UK autism prevalence in children is estimated at 1–3% of the population, with recent studies suggesting 1 in 36 children aged eight years have an autism diagnosis. The commissioned service will provide a joint working model within the Trust Early Help Service. The Early Help service consists of one Targeted Family Help team and a Voluntary sector team in each of the 10 districts across Birmingham and the commissioned service will also need to align with The Family Hub offer. The commissioned service will provide direct interventions to children and young people with autism and their families. The specialist interventions will be specifically related to support associated with the child or young person’s autism. The brief will also include upskilling practitioners within the Early Help service, offering advice, guidance and training on autism enabling practitioners to respond effectively to families, this will include providing shadowing opportunities for recently trained staff from the partnerships. The duration of the contract will be for one year, with the option to extend for up to two years (1 + 1 + 1), commencing on 1st April 2026. The contract will be reviewed on an annual basis with a break clause after March 2027, and each subsequent year; with the continuation of the contract based on funding availability and performance.
