Description

South Gloucestershire Council is a Unitary Authority in the South West of England. The Council currently commissions a variety of services for adults and children.
The Council is inviting tenders from potential providers who may be interested in developing a coordinated offer of family support across South Gloucestershire. This is to ensure that families who may require additional help have access to effective community based support including parenting and other group programs, direct work with a key worker and a team around the family. The project includes building capacity within the early help workforce through training practitioners and volunteers to work in a strength-based, whole family way. Interventions must be evidence-based, include the whole family and clearly evidence improved outcomes.
The work will concentrate on families requiring help at 'Universal Plus' and will contribute to Families in Focus (the national Troubled Families Programme).
The duration of the contract is 15 months, with the potential to extend for a further 12 months, making a total contract term of 27 months. Any contract extension or renewal will be dependent upon continued need for the service, satisfactory performance and availability of funding. It is anticipated that this contract would start on 11th January 2021.
