However, the scale of children's mental health needs remains of real concern to councils, schools, families and young people themselves, particularly given the impact of the pandemic, school closures and the current Cost of Living crisis. Policies include (but not limited to) the Five Year Forward View, the 2017 Green Paper Transforming Children and Young People's Mental Health, the NHS Long Term Plan, and post Covid-19 recovery. Children's mental health has also been highlighted in recent announcements including the Family Hubs and Best Start for Life, Schools White Paper and Special Educational Needs Green Paper. The government is currently developing its 10-year strategy for mental health (all-age). However, many of the recommendations within these policies have been slow to be implemented or may not go far enough to tackle the rising demand of mental health need that we see today. This report will explore the announcements and steps taken to tackle the rising demand in children's mental health, the progress that has been made and what else needs to happen to ensure that central government, local government, NHS and wider partners are able to tackle children's mental health needs in England. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b30d8ced-9fb7-412e-81f7-e5dd902d1d4d | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 8 Nov 2022 | | Submission deadline | 9 Dec 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 16 Dec 2022 - 14 Apr 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £25,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LOCAL GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1P 3HZ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 80 - Education and training services - 85 - Health and social work services - 98 - Other community, social and personal services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 73200000 - Research and development consultancy services - 73210000 - Research consultancy services - 80000000 - Education and training services - 85000000 - Health and social work services - 85100000 - Health services - 85140000 - Miscellaneous health services - 85300000 - Social work and related services - 85311300 - Welfare services for children and young people - 85312300 - Guidance and counselling services - 85321000 - Administrative social services - 98200000 - Equal opportunities consultancy services ## Release History - 8 Nov 2022 at 12:30 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b30d8ced-9fb7-412e-81f7-e5dd902d1d4d ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b30d8ced-9fb7-412e-81f7-e5dd902d1d4d 8th November 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.delta-esourcing.com/tenders/UK-GB-London:-Progress-on-children-and-young-people's-mental-health-policy-in-England/Q8K9U85XHT Please follow this link to view the notice. ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
