Notice Title

2122-0032 Young Islington - universal youth work offer

Notice Description

Islington Council has a vision to mobilise the collective energy and resources of all partners across the borough to ensure all young people have equal access to opportunities and networks of support to help them enjoy their teenage years, thrive, be safe, enjoy good physical and mental health and realise their ambitions. To achieve this, Islington wants to make sure that all young people benefit from consistent and high-quality relationships with youth workers that support their social and emotional development. Those relationships support young people through the adolescent phase of their lives, and through exposing them to a range of experiences, opportunities and support, help them to develop resilience to cope with change and adversity and avoid negative pathways in future. The new Young Islington universal youth work offer has been developed which will be community focused, building sustainable networks across the borough with a shared and coherent vision linking into and building capacity amongst community youth providers and groups. The intention is that the new offer will draw in and convene a range of resources for the benefit of young people.

Advocate for young people's right to be visible and play a full role in the local community across a range of forums and to stakeholders including parents/carers, schools, funders and decision makers. * Signpost young people and families to the whole of the youth offer and into other services that could help to meet their needs (health, education, family support services, etc.), as well as wider relevant universal services. * Articulate and communicate the impact of quality youth work, amplify the stories and evidence of what has worked well as a result of the development of networks of organisations and communities working together

Lot 4 will be awarded as a separate contract to the bidder which successfully bids for lot 2. A tenderer will not be awarded lot 2 if they are unwilling or unable to deliver lot 4. Lot 4 cannot be bid for independently as a separate lot. Funding for lot 4 has only been secured for the first 12 month period.",
