The contract will commence on 1st April 2026 with an end date of 31st March 2027. An option to extend for an additional period of up to six months will be at the sole discretion of NAC and subject to satisfactory performance and funding.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Barnardo's and Children's First are existing providers with NAC and have long been key contributors to delivering ADP strategic priorities. Both organisations provide vital community based support to children and families, with a strong focus on early intervention for those at the initial stages of alcohol or drug use. Their dedicated staff deliver whole family trauma recovery support, one to one and group work for children, young people, parents and carers, peer support opportunities, and intensive family support. This redirection of CASST funding strengthens their ability to continue offering these essential services.

Procurement Information

Need for supplier continuity whereby a change in supplier would be detrimental to the service users. North Ayrshire ADP have working in partnership with Children First and Barnardo's for over 10 years. Redirecting funding to Children's First and Barnardo's will allow two services already in operation to increase capacity in the anticipation of a higher number of referrals. These measures would help to sustain current services and ensure continuity in the landscape of support for children and families.
