Domestic Abuse By and For Services

Notice Description

This opportunity is for a Provider Panel for Domestic Abuse By and For Services. Domestic Abuse By and For Services are specialist services for minoritised groups whose services are designed and delivered by people that share the same protected characteristic/s as the people they aim to serve.

In addition there must be clear and meaningful representation and leadership from person/persons from the minoritised group in terms of the service design and management. The Provider Panel is to be made of multiple providers (on a non-exclusive basis). Further details regarding the service requirements may be found in ITT Document 2, Service Specification. There are no restrictions to the number of Providers who may be members of the Provider Panel, only that they meet all the requirements of this Invitation to Tender and Service Specification.
