The procurement process is currently in the planning stage, with a focus on addressing the needs of families impacted by drug and alcohol use in East Ayrshire. The expected duration for this contract is three years, with the potential for a two-year extension based on the success of the service. Interested parties should note that initial expressions of interest can be sent to Zoe.Wilson@east-ayrshire.gov.uk, and the notice indicates a forthcoming related opportunity on 1st April 2022. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in health and social services, particularly those with expertise in family support, addiction recovery, and community outreach. Organisations that can deliver holistic support tailored to families, navigate health visitor referrals, and foster relationship-building with clients would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. The anticipated annual value of £200,000 underscores the potential for growth within this sector as the council aims to enhance family resilience and parenting skills in the community. ## Notice East Ayrshire HSCP recognise the impact that problematic parental drug and/or alcohol use can have on the development of babies and early years children. We aim to support families who are struggling with drug/alcohol use, but who do not yet meet a threshold for statutory interventions. A whole family approach will be taken to increase resilience and self-coping strategies, improve family relationships and parenting skills. ### Lot Information Lot 1 East Ayrshire HSCP recognise the impact that problematic parental drug and/or alcohol use can have on the development of babies and early years children. We aim to support families who are struggling with drug/alcohol use, but who do not yet meet a threshold for statutory interventions. A whole family approach will be taken to increase resilience and self-coping strategies, improve family relationships and parenting skills. Referrals will come from midwives, health visitors, nurseries etc. where parental drug/alcohol use has been identified or suspected. This will be a relationship based model, allowing parents to develop a relationship of trust with support workers, in order to achieve the best possible outcomes for their children. The service will be delivered throughout East Ayrshire in communities, family homes and community hubs. It is expected that there will be some evening and weekend work to accommodate family's needs. The duration of the contract is anticipated to be for 3 years, with up to an additional 2 years extension if the model is successful. The expected value of the service is 200,000 GBP per annum. EAHSCP do not provide premises at the moment due to COVID restrictions, and so the provider would have to have their own base.
