What is being bought

Published requirement description

Worcestershire County Council is looking to commission a service provider to provide specialist practitioners as part of their Worcestershire Family Safeguarding (WFS) Service for a 10-month period from 1st June 2024 to 31st March 2025. There is a possibility of a 12-month extension, subject to funding availability. The following roles are required:

  • 2 FTE Domestic Abuse Survivor Workers
  • 2 FTE Domestic Abuse Perpetrator Workers
  • 2 FTE Substance Misuse Recovery Workers The staff roles will be required to work as part of a small multi-agency team to avoid exculpation of social work intervention and ultimately to reduce risk. The commissioned specialist practitioners will work alongside allocated social workers across the WCC Children’s Services safeguarding service. They will manage an identified cohort of families where the trilogy of risks has been identified, namely domestic abuse, substance misuse and mental health, to improve engagement and outcomes for parents/carers a

What this means for your bid
