## Summary

The NHS Shared Business Services is seeking expressions of interest for the "Young Carers Home Based Family Support Service," aimed at supporting young carers under 18 in the London boroughs of Hammersmith and Fulham, Kensington and Chelsea, and Westminster. The procurement process is currently in the planning stage, with a deadline for responses set for 5pm on Tuesday, 31st March 2015. The intended service contract is estimated to be worth approximately £120,000 per year, spanning a three-year duration. Potential service providers are encouraged to review the initial service specification and provide feedback, fostering collaborative input into the service delivery approach.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses focused on health and social care services, particularly those with expertise in outreach and support for families. Companies that can provide holistic, family-centred interventions tailored to the unique challenges faced by young carers will be particularly well-suited to participate in this process. Additionally, entities with a strong understanding of issues relating to mental health, housing, and social support are encouraged to engage, as these factors are critical to the service's success and the wellbeing of the families involved.

## Notice

NHS Central London, NHS West London and Hammersmith and Fulham Clinical Commissioning Groups (the 'CCGs') are working together to develop a new local service to provide outreach support to young carers under 18 years of age, who provide care, assistance and support to another family member who may be disabled, physically or mentally ill, or has a substance misuse problem, to deliver the strategic aims of reducing health inequalities and improving specific health outcomes for affected families. The service is intended to provide support to over 300 families across the London boroughs of: Hammersmith and Fulham; Kensington and Chelsea; and Westminster. The scope of service will include: visiting families in their home where a young carer is involved in providing support; offering whole family interventions; improving outcomes through a whole family approach. Challenges for the young carers and families being supported include: housing; mental health; income; prevention of illness; self management of existing long term conditions. Whilst an initial service specification has been drafted, intending to support a procurement process to award a 3 year service contract worth cira PS120,000 per year, EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST ARE INVITED from potential service providers. Along with your confirmed expression of interest, the CCGs welcomes your feedback and comments in regard to the draft service specification as well as any initial thoughts you may have in relation to how such a service could be delivered, approaches to co-producing the service, what assets might be harnessed and any other added value, including social value might potentially result. The DEADLINE FOR RESPONSES to this invitation for Expressions of Interest and your feedback is 5pm, Tuesday 31st March 2015, via email to Peter.Beard@nw.london.nhs.uk.
