## Summary

Carmarthenshire County Council commissioned specialist one-to-one health support and interventions for young people. The service is delivered by fully qualified Youth Liaison Nurses, who assess young people’s needs, identify underlying issues and develop plans to reduce risk and improve health and wellbeing outcomes. Support covers diet, sexual health and contraception, managing health conditions, anxiety, depression, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, sexually harmful behaviour and other complex health concerns. The work requires clinical knowledge, professional registration, safeguarding expertise and access to NHS systems. The delivery location is Carmarthenshire, Wales. This is a health and social care service (CPV 85000000), with Hywel Dda University Health Board named as the supplier.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Carmarthenshire County Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Hywel Dda University Health Board was selected as the supplier. The contract was signed on 31 July 2026, runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 March 2028, and is valued at £74,500 excluding VAT (£89,400 including VAT). The procurement comprised one lot, covering the specialist health support and interventions described. The published information does not state an evaluation basis or selection criteria; the route was a non-competitive direct award.

For a future requirement of this kind, a credible provider would need to deliver individual clinical assessment and tailored interventions for young people across a broad range of health and wellbeing concerns. The service model calls for fully qualified Youth Liaison Nurses with professional registration, relevant clinical knowledge, safeguarding expertise and the ability to access NHS systems. Providers would need capability to advise on sexual health, contraception, diet and health conditions, as well as respond appropriately to mental health concerns, self-harm, suicidal thoughts and sexually harmful behaviour. This is a focused, specialist service for young people in Carmarthenshire, rather than a general health or social care contract. Hywel Dda University Health Board’s selection shows that an NHS provider with these clinical and safeguarding capabilities met the buyer’s requirement.
