The services will not support those children, young people and families already known to and in receipt of support from specialist and statutory services, rather they will ensure delivery of support that complements, not duplicates existing services such as; • School funded support at additional levels of need • Essex Child and Family Wellbeing Service • Essex Integrated Wellbeing Service • Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service • Family Solutions By Early Intervention we mean stopping something occurring or getting worse and for the purposes of this funding will provide brief, light touch interventions that will enable children, young people, parents and carers to draw on their own resources and resilience to resolve future problems. This Grant is concerned with working with children and young people, parents/carers and families who will benefit from receiving support by way of Brief Solution Focussed Support (BSFS) such as coaching, mediation, conflict, through 1:1, group and family/parent/couples work. This will usually take place in face to face however, it may also take place using on-line platforms if that is deemed appropriate, for example during holiday periods or weekends/evenings. ## CPV classification Health and social work services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/5d4726c1-e8c3-4726-96c8-1d7405429137) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
