Summary:

Hartlepool Borough Council is seeking expressions of interest from suitable providers (including small and medium sized enterprises, voluntary and community sector and similar organisations) to provide domestic violence support services in Hartlepool
 
The successful provider must be able to provide structured but flexible services to meet the specific needs of victims of domestic and sexual violence and their children who reside in Hartlepool.
 
The service will be expected to provide safe refuge accommodation and associated advisory and direct support services to reduce the risk to victims and counselling to enable them to move on with their lives and live free from violence and abuse. Provision must be tailored to meet the needs of the individual and may be on a one to one basis, group work, a centre based approach or through outreach support. The service will also provide specialist domestic violence support to families where there are early indications that domestic violence is an issue although no disclosures have been made.
 
The successful provider will also provide a specialist support service to address the safety of victims at high risk of harm, serving as their primary point of contact, discussing options and creating a workable safety plan
 
Additionally, the provider will provide a voluntary, structured rolling programme for men who are violent or abusive to their partner and wish to change their behaviour.
 
It is anticipated that the service will commence on 1^st April 2012 for a period of three years with the possibility of an extension for a further two years subject to satisfactory performance and continued need for the Service. The estimated cost of the service will be between £220,000 – £270,000 per annum, however interested parties will be required to demonstrate savings over the duration of the contract.
 
Prospective providers must demonstrate experience of, and commitment to providing a high quality, cost effective service and victim focussed service
