NHS England has secured increased funding to commission trial schemes for 2015/16 to test the new standard service specification developed in collaboration by the national L&D Programme Team, NHS England Health and Justice Leads and the Offender Health Collaborative. NHS England (Cumbria and the North East) wish to invite written quotes in the form of service development proposals from interested service providers to develop liaison and diversion service provision within Carlisle Police Station and Magistrates court on the basis that: • Carlisle is the largest custody suite; • the volumes are greatest; • the incidence of suicide and undetermined injuries is high within Carlisle; and • it is the site of both Magistrates’ and Crown Courts, which is relevant having a view to the ultimate expansion of the L&D service in accordance with the national operating model.
