To Register your Interest in attending the Market Engagement Event or seek additional information can be obtained from the above-mentioned address https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome. Project Reference C199419 Community Youth Work Offer The Community Youth Work Offer will provide needs led emotional wellbeing and mental health support for young people aged 11-18 (inclusive) in Norfolk and Waveney with the overall aim to help young people achieve their goals and have improved mental health. The offer will provide one to one and group-based support using Youth Work approaches and will be closely linked to local Primary Care Networks. The offer will be made available for young people aged up to 25 where there are additional vulnerabilities meaning they would benefit from a youth work (rather than adult service) approach. Young people who access support from this offer are likely to be experiencing social, emotional, and mental health and wellbeing challenges and the provider will be experienced in providing support and promoting recovery for young people with these issues. The aim of this Expression of Interest is to; 1. provide the market with visibility of the proposed opportunity; 2. support the ICB decision making to inform the future commissioning of services (as applicable); 3. to help define the future service approach and model; 4. to gauge the level of interest from the market of capable providers with capacity across the region to deliver the services noted above. 5.
