Description

Autism Assessment Service for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and pathway coordination for Children and Young People.
This is a Voluntary Ex Ante Transparency (VEAT) notice to inform the market that NHS Cheshire and Merseyside ICB is directly awarding a 12 month contract, with the incumbent provider, Clinical Partners Ltd.
The contract award will start 1st April 2023 and expire 31st March 2024. 
The Provider has had a small historic contract with Knowsley place to manage a small number of children awaiting assessment, however during the COVID period there has been a significant increase in demand and backlog/waiting list and also as a result of the Joint Area SEND Inspection, Cheshire & Merseyside ICB has had to urgently address this significant waiting list to avoid any potential harm due to extended delays in assessments as part of a requested Written Statement of Action. 
This award without competition is to ensure service continuity whilst pending development of wider system approaches for provision of neurodevelopment assessment and co-ordination are developed.

Whole School Body Image Training and Workshops

The Council's Public Health team is seeking to commission an evidence-based programme as part of a preventative approach to establish body respect early in life and address concerns that children and young people (CYP) may already have. The programme should promote positive body image and encourage feeling comfortable and confident in one's own body, supporting healthy choices and overall wellbeing. It should also incorporate elements that foster respect for diversity, self-esteem, and movement for enjoyment rather than appearance, helping CYP to develop lifelong habits that prioritise health and wellbeing over unrealistic body ideals. The Council are therefore seeking proposals from providers to deliver a whole school training package which empowers children and young people (CYP) to respect their bodies and those of others. The package will include direct work with CYP, delivering CPD to school staff and an offer for families. The programme will have three key aims: •To upskill and enhance the understanding and confidence of school staff and system partners to support CYP to have body respect for themselves and others. •To explore and improve CYP's feelings and attitudes towards their own and others' bodies and appearances by establishing whole school inclusive cultures around body respect. •To provide parents/carers with information that empowers them to have supportive discussions with CYP around body image and respect and nurture positive relationships with food and movement from an early age. To support the roll out and align with existing work, the provider will also deliver bespoke training/awareness sessions for the Public Health team and key system partners such as school nurses and youth workers.
