The service will cover sexual behaviour and relationships, including rights and responsibilities, sexual health, consent, body image, toxic masculinity and misogyny. It will also address violence against women and girls, domestic abuse and sexual violence. Delivery includes group work and one-to-one support, alongside support for parents and carers concerned about a child’s relationships, using a whole-family approach. Referrals are expected mainly from children’s social services, schools, Cardiff Youth Service and the Family Advice, Support and Protection Hub. This is health and social work service provision in Cardiff, Wales.

The buyer invited offers through an open competition. The tender submission deadline was 16 November 2026 at 12 noon. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 February 2027 to 31 January 2028, with two possible 12-month renewals and a maximum extent date of 1 February 2030. The stated contract value is £495,000. There is one lot. Evaluation gives 60% to quality, 30% to price and 10% to Community Wellbeing Benefits. The procurement is below the applicable threshold and follows the light-touch regime. Electronic submission was allowed. The listed submission route is the Proactis supplier portal.

This requirement is suited to organisations with the ability to provide relationship-focused support to children and young people, including both group work and individual interventions.
