Description

Keeping the THRIVE Framework Principles in mind, Ealing Council is keen to get feedback from the provider market at an early stage regarding their intention to procure Community Emotional Wellbeing & MH Services for children and young people in two lots in Autumn 2022. Providers are invited providers to express and interest and fill in the following questionnaire for market engagement purposes. https://forms.office.com/r/guTzUHUkcd Ealing spends circa £1.8m per annum on community emotional wellbeing & mental health services approximately split evenly across both Lots (see below). The Council is looking for efficiencies and innovation to make best use of this budget. It is anticipated that the contract will commence in April 2023 and will be for three (3) years, with two possibilities of one (1) year extension. Total value approximately £9m over 5 years. In response to an in-depth review last year of the experiences of children, young people, and their parents/carers in both accessing and receiving care from our community emotional wellbeing & MH services, Ealing Council has been working hard to redesign the services that they now wish to commission. Whilst the process of transformation is far from complete as we continue to revisit existing pathways across and between services and schools and develop a Central Point of Access for all social, emotional wellbeing & MH referrals to Children's Services, we are now seeking experienced providers to join us on our journey. Our aim is to achieve the best outcomes that we can for our children and families and bring about positive change whilst helping support children and young people to achieve their optimum emotional health and well-being. It is envisaged that the services to be tendered will be commissioned in two Lots allowing providers to bid for one or both Lots. Lot 1: This will include those early intervention and prevention services which offer a blended model of training, support, advice and consultation for both families and those professional involved in their care, alongside offering a range of responsive time-limited evidence-based MH interventions to children, young people and their families within a community setting or school. Lot 2: This will include those services which are aimed at supporting families who are most in need by improving MH and emotional wellbeing. This includes psychology provision which supports statutory services within the Council and helps to manage demand, reduce family and placement breakdown.
