Description
NWL CCG requires the provision of children with special education needs and disabilities (SEND) Parent / Carer Counselling Support services in Hammersmith & Fulham. The aim of the service is to provide service users access to support for parents and carers of children with SEND to have a dedicated space to invest in their own personal wellbeing together with peers.
This bespoke and specialist service is designed to deliver regular and dedicated wellbeing sessions to groups of 15 parents / carers of children with special education needs and disabilities (SEND) over a rolling 12-week programme for 1.5 hours each week at regular points throughout the year. Sessions are hosted in a range of local venues within Hammersmith & Fulham. Alongside this, parents / carers are offered the option to bring their child / children with them who will also receive dedicated play specialist support in a safe environment at the same venue where the physical activity wellbeing sessions are delivered. This allows parents to have their own respite and participate fully in the sessions.
The programme is designed to:
-Reduce social isolation of parents and carers of children with SEND;
-Improve the overall mental and physical wellbeing of families impacted by SEND;
-To prevent the need for parent / carers to access a higher level of mental health support.
The CCG currently has contract arrangements in place with the 'Parents Active' Community Group Charitable Provider until 31st March 2022. The purpose of this PIN is to be transparent about the CCG's intentions to initiate another 18 month contract with the current provider while considering options for making future arrangements for this service.
Providers capable to deliver the service may come forward by 29th April 2022 to engage with the CCG. In your response to this opportunity, please advise your interest and demonstrate capacity and capability to deliver this service via:
https://airtable.com/shr52NBGIuyGSsvoY
If it is that the 'Parents Active' Community Group Charitable Provider are the only provider capable of delivering the service, then the CCG will look to award a further contract to the provider for up to 18 months beyond April 2022.
Whilst the CCG considers its procurement options for these services going forward, it may extend its arrangements with the current provider until a new contract is awarded.
During 2022, it is anticipated that NWL CCG will be succeeded by an Integrated Care Board (ICB). Any future contract and/or procurement opportunity may therefore be in the name of the ICB.
