Notice Description

This notice is placed as a Prior Information Notice (PIN) to seek expressions of interest from organisations interested in delivering the Children and Young Person's Framework for Integrated Care (FfIC) Community Services in the Thames Valley area on behalf of NHS England Health & Justice South East (the commissioner).

The intention is to support and strengthen community services for these CYP whose complex needs are currently not being met. The service is to be delivered in three areas of the Thames Valley region (Oxfordshire, Berkshire and Buckinghamshire) and needs to consist of: * A service that offers a clinical screening, assessment and professional consultancy resource to other teams and practitioners (e.g. social care, education, youth offending teams (YOTs)) in the area regarding referrals of vulnerable children with complex needs at risk of contact with the criminal justice system. The service will also advise teams and services on onward referrals of children to other appropriate services in the area. * A youth worker service, providing ongoing face to face support to a small caseload of children and young people with complex needs referred by the screening and assessment service The service will need to facilitate integrated local trauma-informed systems that enable vulnerable children and young people with complex needs to thrive. The Service will need to be characterised by a close level of integration between the clinical delivery and youth work delivery. Interested providers are invited to complete a short questionnaire as part of an information gathering exercise by the commissioner to inform their strategic direction and service specification (details at the end of this notice). It is anticipated that a contract will commence on 1st April 2025. The contract term will be 4 years, with an estimated total contract value of PS6,789,196. This exercise is being carried out by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioner.

The Authority will not be liable for costs incurred by any interested party in participating in this exercise.
