The Council recognises that to successfully transition and sustain young people in a family setting they need to be placed with the right carers, at the right time with intensive support and services. These will give the young person the best possible opportunity to their full potential, socially, emotionally, in their education and health. Therefore, the role of the proposed commissioned service is to work with 2 cohorts: Cohort A: Cheshire West and Chester Council's cohort of children and young people in currently in residential care; Cohort B: Children in foster care,who have experienced significant instability and are at imminent risk of entering residential care. The service is intended to provide a high-intensity foster care type intervention in order to facilitate children 'stepping down' into stable foster care by delivering a person centred approach. Additional information: Tendered under Light Touch Regime - Schedule 3 services. ## CPV classification Health and social work services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/09a6e96f-507b-4990-8b6d-00197f985694) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
