Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process conducted by the City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council involves awarding a contract for "Therapeutic support for Refugee and Asylum Seeking children." This project, targeted at providing psychotherapy services across the Yorkshire and the Humber regions, is an extension for an additional year with the procurement handled directly without competition as it falls below the threshold. Noted for its completion, the contract carries a value of £39,500 and officially commenced on the 11th of December 2025, concluding on the 4th of January 2027. The procurement is classified as a "light touch" regime within the services category, focusing on guidance and counselling services aimed at refugees and asylum seekers, with specific delivery aimed within the UKE41 region of the United Kingdom.

This contract creates opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) like SOLACE SURVIVING EXILE AND PERSECUTION, a supplier already awarded this contract, to further develop and expand their service offerings in specialised therapeutic support. The focus on providing essential guidance and counselling services presents significant growth potential for organisations operating within the social services sector who are geared towards supporting displaced communities. Such businesses, particularly those with Vocational Community Social Enterprise (VCSE) credentials, are particularly well-suited to enhance their portfolio through projects similar to this, aiding in both service provision and community support.
