## Summary

Pembrokeshire County Council intends to establish a framework for therapy and support for children and young people. This is a health and social care service, with delivery in Wales. The council is planning this framework alongside a separate contract for psychological therapy for children and young people; the two services are being covered by a combined market engagement event, but remain separate procurements. The engagement is intended to help the council shape the future therapy framework. Providers with services for children and young people in Pembrokeshire and elsewhere in Wales may find the planned work relevant. The framework is intended to bring together providers able to deliver therapy and support services for this age group.

The procurement is at the planning stage: the council has announced its intention to procure, but has not yet invited tenders. It expects to publish a further notice on 1 February 2027. The planned contract period is 1 July 2027 to 30 June 2031. The estimated value is £800,000 excluding VAT and £960,000 including VAT. The service is planned as a framework, with one lot. The council is holding an in-person market engagement event at County Hall, Haverfordwest, on 26 November 2026, from 10:00 to 12:00. Organisations planning to attend were asked to provide their organisation name and attendee names by 16 November 2026. The engagement covers this framework and a separate psychological therapy contract.

The council has identified the work as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so smaller providers and mission-led organisations should consider preparing to engage. Providers with relevant experience delivering therapy or support to children and young people are the clearest fit. The market engagement is an opportunity for providers to help shape the future service before the tender is issued. The council has not yet set out specific qualifications, accreditations, staffing requirements or evaluation criteria, so businesses should use the engagement to understand the service model the council is developing and to communicate the capabilities they can offer. This is a framework rather than a single defined service contract, and the planned work sits alongside a separate procurement for psychological therapy.
