## About this tender

South West London Health & Care Partnership (SWLHCP) wishes to invite expressions of interest and engagement from providers interested in delivering an Early Support Service to children and young people who have been the victim of a child sexual abuse - as well as their non-offending families and carers. The Commissioners' vision is to provide mental health and emotional wellbeing assessment and support. The service will provide a consistent and timely offer to all children and young people aged up to 18 years of age who have been sexual assaulted and are registered with a General Practitioner within the catchment areas of Kingston, Merton, Richmond, Sutton, Croydon and Wandsworth Clinical Commissioning Groups who met the criteria for referral. The service provider will deliver this service across South West London; the role of the service will be to offer all victims of CSA:

â&#128;¢ Assessment of emotional needs and risk

â&#128;¢ Brief intervention and family support

â&#128;¢ Targeted outward referral e.g. referral to CAMHS through each SPoA, school counselling/nurse - with support from experts, etc.

The provider is expected to provide or work with CAMHS to:

â&#128;¢ Identify and address emerging symptoms of mental health disorders / problems and make a referral to CAMHS where appropriate.

â&#128;¢ Promote recovery from trauma or through evidenced based interventions

â&#128;¢ Equip children and young people and their families with the skills to manage the impact of their symptoms in the community

â&#128;¢ Provide a rapid response to signpost children and young people experiencing a crisis or a significant deterioration in their mental health

â&#128;¢ Assess and manage with clinicians and partners clinical risk and ensure there is a proportionate and planned response in place to reduce the risk of harm to the patient or others

â&#128;¢ Identify and safeguard children and young people at risk of or experiencing harm, abuse and/ or neglect by working with other agencies and in accordance with local procedures.

â&#128;¢ Prioritise assessments of children who are Looked After to ensure that no child or young person who is placed in alternative accommodation

The Provider will accept all CSA referrals from local Social Workers, Paediatricians and the Havens for NHS Croydon, Wandsworth, Sutton, Merton, Kingston and Richmond Clinical Commissioning Groups children and young people under the age of 18 years. The provider shall ensure the principles of CYP IAPT (Improving Access to Psychological Therapies) are embedded across the service provision

To express your interest in providing this service, and to provide your initial feedback, providers are asked to complete the short questionnaire attached and return by email to Susan Shaw () with the email Subject Heading "Market Engagement Response - SWL CCG's - CSA Early Emotional Support Service " by 23rd July 2019

Additional information: The Provider will be expected to conduct outreach activities to promote the service to ensure an equitable service and access across south west London. The Provider will ensure that there is an outreach offer/option at locations within each of the 6 boroughs and not expect children, young people and their families/carers to travel to one point/borough to access the service. For example - sessions held in central/accessible locations in each borough e.g. GP surgeries, CAMHS offices, etc.

To express your interest in providing this service, and to provide your initial feedback, providers are asked to complete the short questionnaire attached and return by email to Susan Shaw () with the email Subject Heading "Market Engagement Response - SWL CCG's - CSA Early Emotional Support Service ".

Commissioners will then review the responses and are looking to organise an engagement event in Late July/Early August to discuss the findings and inform the detailed service specification and shape the procurement route to be taken.

Participation in the engagement exercise is not a mandatory requirement for participating in any potential future procurement however responses received will assist to inform the Commissioner regarding the final specification of its requirements and what might be the most process to award any contract, including whether a competitive process will be appropriate / necessary. CONFIRMATION OF YOUR EXPRESSION OF INTEREST IS THEREFORE IMPORTANT IF YOU HAVE AN INTEREST TO BE A PROVIDER OF THIS SERVICE.
