## Summary

Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council is seeking to commission a volunteer family support project focused on early years, as described in a recently updated tender. This initiative is aimed at providing assistance to families in the Reddish and Offerton areas of Stockport to enhance child development outcomes during the perinatal period. The contracting process is in the tender stage, with key dates including the enquiry period ending on 4th June 2025 and the tender submission deadline on 6th June 2025. The contract is valued at £37,131.60 and will run for 12 months, starting on 23rd June 2025. The procurement method is below threshold open competition, allowing for electronic submissions through The Chest portal.

This tender presents an exciting opportunity for businesses specialising in social work and related services. Organisations experienced in providing in-home family support are well-positioned to leverage their expertise in this small-scale project, designed to target specific needs within the community. The contract is notably suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), fostering collaboration with local councils to deliver tailored support services. Participation could help businesses expand their networks and demonstrate their capability in supporting public health and welfare initiatives.

## Notice

We would like to commission an organisation to work with families in their own homes in Stockport, to help reduce the stigma of asking for help and maximise impact on child development outcomes. This is a 12 month project on a small scale area. The project will focus on the perinatal period and will work with identified families. Families will reside in Reddish and Offerton areas of Stockport. Further information is available via The Chest/ProActis platform - Chest Reference: DN775798
