Summary of the contracting process

Wolverhampton City Council has concluded the procurement process for its "Power2 Keyworkers" service, which is focused on supporting children and young adults aged 10-25 who have experienced trauma or instability. The procurement was an open procedure, culminating in contracts being awarded on 1st June 2026, running through to 31st May 2029, with potential extensions to 31st May 2030. The project, set in Wolverhampton (UKG39), addresses the health and social work services category under a light touch regime. The initiative is divided into three lots: Lived Experience Mentoring & Trauma Informed Relationship Support, Trauma Informed Parenting & PACE Practice Support, and Creative Therapeutic Support & Future Pathway Planning.

This tender offers ample opportunities for large-scale organisations, especially those inclined towards social work and health services, to extend their services in supporting vulnerable communities. With contracts awarded to entities like ST GILES TRUST, Barnardo's, and Gazebo Theatre in Education Company Limited, the initiative highlights a business growth potential in delivering trauma-informed care and therapeutic support. Businesses that focus on collaborative and community-centred approaches, particularly those with a vested interest in youth services and empowerment, will find this procurement aligns well with their strategic aims. The procurement's emphasis on multi-agency collaboration and relational safeguarding provides a rich platform for organisations to innovate and build resilient support systems for young people.
