## Summary

The procurement process undertaken by Bath & North East Somerset Council involves the award of a contract titled "Domestic Violence and Abuse Refuge Including Enhanced Support for DVA and Children." This contract falls under the industry category of health and social work services and is located in various regions across the United Kingdom, including UKK, UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, and UKJ. The procurement stage for this contract is the award phase, and it was executed as a direct, below-threshold procurement method without competition. The contract was signed on 12 June 2025, and it will be active from 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2027, with break clauses at 12 and 18 months. The service will continue to be delivered from the existing infrastructure in Bath, though not suitable for permanent use.

This tender offers significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for organisations familiar with providing trauma-informed support services in the domestic violence and abuse sector. The continued provision of domestic violence refuge services, enhanced support for survivors, and focus on children's needs present substantial opportunities for businesses with expertise in health and social work services. Large entities, particularly those possessing experience with public contracts and offering holistic support services, like Julian House, which has been awarded the contract, will find this procurement process particularly well-suited to their capabilities.

## Notice

This contract is for the continued provision of a Domestic Violence and Abuse Refuge Service, delivered by Julian House, including enhanced support for survivors of domestic abuse and their children. The service offers safe accommodation and holistic, trauma-informed support to women and children at risk of harm. The new contract term is from 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2027, and the service will continue to be delivered from the existing building, which, while not fit for longer-term use, will remain in use during this interim period. Break clauses are included at 12 months (1 July 2026) and 18 months (1 January 2027), allowing either party to terminate the agreement with three months' written notice from either of those points.
