## Summary

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in health training services and support for families with autistic children. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are well-suited to compete for this contract, as they can leverage their expertise in community engagement and training. The focus on creating a supportive network highlights the potential for businesses to contribute positively to local communities while expanding their service offerings within the healthcare sector.

## Notice

Health Education England is seeking a suitably skilled and well-appointed contractor to design and deliver an appropriate training intervention for parents of young people aged 11-18 to enable them to operate within a peer support network. Training would equip parents to work alongside and with other parents of young people diagnosed with autism to share their experiences in managing the challenges during adolescence and at a time of transition and act as a local source of support which is outside of the formal health or care system.
