Market Engagement Event for the Provision of a Children & Young People's Wellbeing Service

The Vale of Glamorgan Council is initiating a procurement process in the planning stage for the provision of a Children's and Young People's Wellbeing Service. This falls under the industry category of welfare services for children and young people and is scheduled to cover the region of Vale in the UK, specifically region UKL22. A market engagement event is planned for 14th August 2025 via Microsoft Teams to discuss this procurement, with a future notice expected to be published by 30th September 2025.

The project aims to integrate various support strands into a single model targeted at children and young people aged 8-18. 2 million GBP for the procurement process operating under light-touch regulations. This tender presents a significant opportunity for experienced providers specialising in children's welfare services to expand their offerings.

The Council is particularly interested in innovative approaches that address emotional wellbeing, resilience, and support for young carers. Businesses with expertise in comprehensive service integration, emotional support frameworks, and social value enhancement are well-positioned to compete. The process also acknowledges potential TUPE implications and prioritises government objectives such as social value and decarbonisation, providing various avenues for growth and development for suitable providers.
