• Detached and Holistic Health & Wellbeing Support for Young People (THinK)

  The aim of this Service is to intervene in the lives of young people and offer a challenging programme of informal social education. Youth workers on this service will be important influencers on young people's lives to stimulate discussion and involve them in a variety of activities. This model of youth work practice will be targeted at young people on their territory (streets, parks, open and shared public spaces). Participation is voluntary and engagement is on the terms of the young people. This service will also be responsible for delivering our 'youth voice' offer across the Borough, including the responsibility for the maintenance and delivery of our local Youth Cabinet and associated youth engagement and social action groups. The service will also be responsible for delivering holistic health and wellbeing support provision for young people within the borough of Knowsley. This element of the service will be called the Teenage Health in Knowsley Service (THinK). The THinK service will be responsible for working with the Council and partner organisations to deliver public health interventions, information, advice and support to young people in Knowsley. The service must work with colleagues in public health and partner organisations across Knowsley to co-design this support. The service will act as a key delivery partner to ensure that key public health messages, interventions, information, advice and support are provided to young people in Knowsley in a consistent and seamless manner. An important aspect of this co-ordination role will be developing 'drop-down' days in individual schools where young people have the opportunity to engage with a range of health services on site, and creating an agreed calendar of activity, developed in conjunction with individual schools and our main providers The successful Provider will be required to support the priorities set out within the Knowsley Cared for Children Strategy 2023-2026 and Knowsley Care Experienced People Strategy 2023-2026. This will include providing a dedicated offer over a minimum of two days at Our Place, but with the ambition to grow an offer that will support and enhance opportunities for care experienced people to achieve their aspirations. Maintenance of the Our Place building on Longview Drive, Huyton will also be included in this Contract. The anticipated costs associated with the running of this building have been included as part of the Contract's budget. Please be aware that no equipment or assets currently in the building will transfer as part of the contract but may be agreed by way of separate negotiations with the incumbent Provider.
