The service must operate within a robust safeguarding framework and work closely with Police, Probation, Local Authority Social care (and other) services, MARAC, MAPPA, health services and specialist victim support provision. This notice does not constitute a call for competition or a guarantee of invitation to quote. Its purpose is solely to understand market interest and to identify potentially suitable and eligible suppliers. Submission of an expression of interest does not oblige the Council to invite any organisation to quote, nor does it commit the Council to proceed with a procurement exercise Suppliers responding should demonstrate relevant experience, evidence based practice, strong risk management and inclusive, trauma informed delivery.
