Children's Centre Outreach

Tender description

Westminster City Council (the Authority) will be embarking on the recommissioning of a Children’s Centre Outreach service. Westminster’s 3 Family Hubs support mums, dads and their children, with friendly, experienced and qualified staff on hand to assist with making choices and using services. These are great places for families and communities that can provide information on finding local services such as childcare, early education and healthcare, as well as advice on jobs and training. Many run stay and play sessions, where trained professionals will be on hand to help you support your child’s development. This Children’s Centre Outreach Service delivered from Westminster City Council’s Family Hubs, provides an integral role in supporting children under the age of 5 years old as part of the Early Help Service delivered through the Borough’s Family Hubs. This service requirement also includes the co-ordination of the 0-5 Befriending Volunteering Service and the 0-16 Early Help Volunteering Services that will also be delivered from Family Hubs. Prior to commencing any formal public procurement process Westminster City Council wish to engage with interested providers and undertake a formal market engagement. The over-all arching aim of the market engagement exercise is to establish and understand the market appetite for the Children Centre Outreach service and brief suppliers on the service required by Westminster City Council providing an opportunity to seek feedback. Providers with experience of delivering these types of services are invited to attend a supplier engagement event on Wednesday 30th June 2021. Kindly register your expression of interest via pqq_WCC_1663 — Children’s Centre Outreach Service by 25th June 2021. Further information in regards to time and joining the session will be made available to registered delegates via the e-tendering portal.
