Description

This procurement is for the establishment of a framework agreement ("the Framework") as a procurement vehicle for the commissioning and procurement by Southampton City Council ("the Council")  and the Hampshire & Isle of Wight Integrated Care Board ("the ICB") of social care supported living services under the Council's Inclusive Lives commissioning agenda. The procurement was conducted under the "Light Touch Regime" in accordance with the Public Contract Regulations 2015 Regulations 74-76. The services will primarily - but not exclusively - be for adults with lived experience of either learning disability or mental health conditions and comparable needs, neurodiversity (including autism) and individuals in receipt of continuing health care services. The procurement sought to source a range of experienced service suppliers to the Framework to support the Council and the ICB in its aim of generating opportunities for individuals to experience inclusive lives through access to good quality supported living and outreach services enabling them to maximise their capacity to live independently and achieve their identified goals and outcomes. The Framework will commence from 4th November 2024 and will have an initial term of 6 years and 5 months (i.e. 77 months). The Council will have the option to extend the Framework Agreement term, by up to three further periods each of one year in length, by the provision to the Service Provider of at least 6 months in writing, so that the maximum length of the Framework Agreement will be 9 years and 5 months (i.e. 113 months).

Parent-Infant Relationship: Pregnancy Bonding and Attachment Training

North Northamptonshire Council seeks to commission a one-year training programme in pregnancy bonding and attachment, with a focus on strengthening relationships between parents and infants from the earliest stages of pregnancy through to the end of the first 1,001 critical days. Empowering expectant parents to form strong, positive bonds with their unborn babies and to nurture these relationships as their child grows. The total budget available for this opportunity is £38,000, and suppliers are invited to provide proposals that deliver against the requirements within this funding envelope. This programme will form a central part of the North Northamptonshire Family Hubs model, which has mobilised four Family Hub Networks across each locality (Corby, East Northants, Kettering and Wellingborough) to provide integrated, accessible, and family-centred support. To strengthen this offer, the training is designed for the Early Help workforce, operating within the Family Hub Network, which includes Best Start in Life (BSIL) practitioners, Service Managers, Early Years Practitioners, and Family Hub Connectors. By embedding this training in Family Hubs, services will be equipped with the skills, confidence, and consistency needed to support parents in building strong bonds with their babies from pregnancy and beyond. The Training Programme aims to: • Strengthen the capacity of the Family Hub workforce to promote and support bonding and secure parent-infant relationships from pregnancy onwards. • Equip practitioners with evidence-based knowledge and skills to recognise, prevent, and respond to perinatal mental health and bonding difficulties. • Build a shared language and approach across the workforce to improve consistency of practice and ensure families receive joined-up support. • Promote inclusive practice that recognises and values the roles of fathers, partners, and diverse family structures in early bonding and attachment. • Contribute to the delivery of the North Northamptonshire Perinatal Mental Health and Parent-Infant Relationships Strategy (2024) by addressing the identified gap in workforce development.
