In order to deliver services to support children and young people in North Northamptonshire using an evidence-based approach and health need assessment, the 0 - 19 service has been split into two lots: 0-11 and 11-19.

Lot 1: 0-11 Service, fully integrated with Family Hubs:

Lot 1 provides a fully integrated service for families with children aged 0-11, linked to Family Hubs. It includes the Healthy Child Programme, which focuses on early childhood health through regular reviews, immunizations, and health education. There is targeted support for vulnerable parents, expanded access to services, and initiatives like the Infant Feeding Service to promote breastfeeding. The Parent and Infant Mental Health Programme supports emotional wellbeing, while the National Child Weight Management Programme monitors and addresses childhood obesity. All programs aim to reduce health inequalities and improve outcomes for families.

Contract Duration - 60 months with the preferred Potential Supplier, with an option to extend for 48 months, making 108 months in total.

The Service, led by Specialist Community Public Health Nurses (School Nurses), aims to support the health and wellbeing of school-aged children through a comprehensive, no wrong door approach. The service includes health education, immunizations, and safeguarding, along with specialized support in key areas such as mental health and emotional wellbeing, promoting healthy relationships, encouraging healthier lifestyle choices, and reducing risk-taking behaviours. Additionally, the service provides guidance to help young people transition smoothly into adulthood and become work-ready.

Contract Duration - 36 months with the preferred Potential Supplier, with an option to extend for 48 months, making 84 months in total.

Contract Value - The Contract has a maximum annual budget of £7,000,000 for Lot Two (exclusive of VAT) for the delivery of the requirement as set out in the Specification.

DHSC: ASC Transitions Training Materials

Background His Majesty’s Government (HMG) works to deliver better life chances for all – breaking the link between background and success. We do this by protecting children and ensuring the delivery of higher standards of education, training and care. The variation and poor quality of the transition from children’s services into ASC is a problem raised in many reports. Improving this transition is important for supporting young people with special educational needs and disabilities to get the right support and to live as independently as possible in adulthood. We are seeking to address the cultural and join-up problems by upskilling the social care sector via a set of best practice training materials and guidelines. The guidelines should be overarching principles for good transitions, drawing on existing materials such as NICE guidelines . These materials will improve the transitions capabilities of both children and adult social workers and leaders in the sector. The development of deliverables, and decisions as to their format, must be informed by engagement with those with lived experience of the transition into ASC (this should include young people, young carers, family, unpaid carers, relevant education settings and practitioners working in the sector).

The Drive Project: Domestic Abuse Perpetrator Services

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Warwickshire, in partnership with the Drive Project, is seeking a qualified Service Provider to deliver a Domestic Abuse Perpetrator Intervention Service. The Drive Project is a nationally recognised response to domestic abuse, designed to reduce the number of child and adult victims by disrupting and changing perpetrator behaviour. It adopts a whole-system approach, combining intensive individual case management with a co-ordinated multi-agency response to drive behavioural change. The project prioritises victim safety while complementing existing victim services. It targets high-risk or serial perpetrators, both male and female, aged 16 and over, who present the greatest risk of serious harm and typically engage poorly with existing services. The key objectives are to reduce the number of serial perpetrators of domestic abuse, reduce the number of repeat and new victims, and reduce the harm caused to victims and children. By addressing perpetrator behaviour, Drive tackles the root cause of domestic abuse and improves outcomes for victims and families. The appointed provider will deliver one-to-one case management for perpetrators, support systemic change through multi-agency collaboration, participate in the Perpetrator Panel (e.g., MATAC or similar forum), and work closely with the Drive Partnership, PCC, local authorities, IDVA services, and stakeholders to develop and adapt best practice models. This is a one-stage tender process. The contract falls below the Light Touch Regime threshold and is therefore outside the Procurement Act 2023; compliance with Act provisions is voluntary. The contract will be for an initial 12-month period with an option to extend for up to a further 12 months, subject to funding. Target go-live date is 01 April 2026. The funding envelope for this project is £317,438 per annum (VAT exempt). Award of contract, including any extensions, is subject to receipt of programme funding. This process is being managed via the, free to access, In-Tend Sell2 Bluelight Portal: https://sell2.in-tend.co.uk/blpd/home Please log in, navigate to ‘Portals’, and select ‘Connect with Organisation’ for Warwickshire Police to access full tender documentation and submission instructions.
