## Summary

The Cumbria County Council has initiated a contract for "Targeted Therapeutic Services for Vulnerable Young People" aimed at providing support and therapeutic services for the most vulnerable and disadvantaged young individuals in the Carlisle area. The procurement process, classified under the CPV code for health and social work services, employed an open procedure and concluded its tender period on 14th October 2016. The contract, valued at £252,000, is set to commence on 1st April 2017 and will run until 31st March 2019. Key contacts for this initiative include Jacqui Sullivan from the Cumbria County Council.

This procurement presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social care services, particularly those with experience in supporting vulnerable populations. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector organisations (VCSEs) are well-suited to compete for this contract, especially those offering evidence-based therapeutic interventions tailored to meet the specific needs of young people. Engaging in this project could enhance a provider's visibility and reputation within the community while contributing positively to social outcomes.

## Notice

The Targeted Therapeutic Services Contract is to ensure that referred Young People that become Service Users receive personal support and therapeutic services to address their needs, support their reintegration into mainstream provision, enhance their life chances and prevent further social exclusion. Service Users are those who are not usually accessing mainstream provision and are regarded as the most vulnerable and disadvantaged. Therapy will be an evidence based programme of intervention and activities that address identified needs as assessed and agreed with Service Users and will result in a positive improvement to their mental health and emotional well-being. The service is to be provided in the Carlisle area - young people living elsewhere in Cumbria will be supported in negotiation with Cumbria County Council.
