We are aware that demand for tier 0/1 continues to increase, especially for those with anxiety and depression and other common mental health issues. We are looking to commission voluntary providers to support and expand tier 0/1 provision by way of non-clinical approaches to support low-level mental health issues. The approaches will need to be strongly linked to the 5 ways to wellbeing.
Purpose of the project
-To commission a number of non-clinical approaches to support low-level mental health issues at a very early stage for children and young people aged 0-18 years across North Wales. Early can mean early in the life of the child or early in the development of a problem or both.
Project aims
-To ensure there is a range of easy-to-access non-clinical approaches in place across North Wales for children and young people.
To provide non-clinical approaches that are equitable and accessible for all.
-To respond to the emerging emotional health and wellbeing needs of children and young people and their families/carers, earlier on, to give every child the best start in life.
-Where possible, and appropriate, for the support provided to enable access to a wider range of support already available in communities and reduce escalation to secondary care services.
-Build resilience across North Wales by providing support in local communities.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
