Adoption Support

Descriptions

This is a Preliminary Market Engagement Notice (PMEN) for information purposes only. It is not a formal invitation to tender. Norfolk County Council (NCC) is seeking a supplier to provide a therapeutic counselling service to those who are adopted, are adoptive parents or are birth family members. In addition, the service will need to provide information and support around understanding the processes for adoption including signposting to other services. The successful provider must ensure that safely recruited and appropriately trained staff can recognise and adapt to the needs of the different service users. They must also provide an appropriate referral mechanism, working with the local authority to confirm eligibility and provide suitable materials to ensure potential users are aware of the service.
