Description

The Department wishes to appoint a facilitator to co-create with the department
sessions to engage with those with lived experience of the care system. We are
looking for a bidder who understands and has previous experience of the workings of
children's social care and in particular those with lived experience of the care
system.
This post is an essential role in implementing the new children's social care reforms.
The post-holder will work with their charity counterparts, virtually or face-to-face, to
facilitate and run effective, inclusive sessions and engagement with people with lived
experience of the care system, to support them to feed in views and influence
implementation of reforms. Each session will have a specific focus on various
aspects of the reform implementation- to be confirmed in partnership with the DfE.
The initial contract duration is 12 months to align with the proposed consultation
periods.
The estimated budget for this contract is £25,000 and we will conduct a 3 quote exercise.
