### Lot Information

Lot 1

For the purposes of this commission, the aim is to provide a comprehensive and flexible service to promote and contribute to the good wellbeing of those (non-employees of Social Care Wales) who are impacted by the Fitness to Practise and Hearing process. The Wellbeing Assistance Programme is expected to be accessed by 500 people during the 12 month pilot. There are on average 300 open Fitness to Practise investigations going through the process at any one time. The service will be offered to registered persons three months after their case has been closed, to ensure they have continued support during an appeals process. The supplier shall operate a friendly, efficient, autonomous and confidential service, delivered, by flexible, committed and professional staff. The Wellbeing Assistance Programme must principally support those impacted by the process by supporting and promoting positive wellbeing. A fully functional Wellbeing Assistance Programme should be a valuable tool in helping to achieve this, whether the presenting issue is work related or otherwise.

Renewal: The contract will initially run for 12 months, commencing no later than 1 May 2022. There is the possibility of being extended for a further 24 months, up to a total period of 36 months (3 years). A break clause will be in place after each 12 month milestone to review service continuation to include budget allocation and costing models.
