two.1.4) Short description
Eastleigh Borough Council is looking to commission a delivery partner to work with them in the design and co-production of a range of youth services across the Borough. Once commissioned, activity to enable an ‘initial phase’ of delivery from 1st September 2021 will begin immediately and the provider will therefore need to be able to support this requirement.
The ‘initial phase’ of delivery will run from 1st September 2021 until 31st March 2022 at the latest. This will allow some early agreed aspects of service delivery to commence immediately, whilst the co-production and development of the new service is taking place. As the ‘initial phase’ of service delivery will not be the final designed and agreed service, it is likely to operate at a reduced level and funded pro-rata to reflect this. However, a fully agreed programme of service delivery will need to be in operation from 1st April 2022.

two.2.4) Description of the procurement
Whilst exact details of the new service design will be the product of discussion, it will need to be outcome driven and remain flexible and responsive to emerging need. The provider will be expected to work with Parish Council and Borough Council officers and members, to shape service provision and to report to them as required.
The latest forecast figures of children in young people aged 10 -17 in the three identified areas for service delivery (see 4. Location of Service) are set out below:
• Bishopstoke, Fair Oak & Horton Heath - 2068
• Eastleigh (Local Area) - 3124
• Chandlers Ford & Hiltingbury - 1977
Eastleigh Borough follows the profile of Hampshire County Council area as a whole with regard to social deprivation, being slightly less deprived overall than the national average. However, Eastleigh town itself is significantly more deprived than the rest of the Borough.
Required outcomes:
To provide and deliver an outcome focused service to enhance the life chances of young people who are engaged. This will need to be supported by ‘Distance Travelled’ tools, or similar approaches, to capture and evidence this.
To provide a variety of well planned, engaging and accessible opportunities for young people from all backgrounds but in particular those that are disengaged from mainstream services.
To increase the engagement of young people in positive and diversionary activity and to reduce involvement in anti-social behaviour and other high-risk activity.
To help improve communication skills and the ability of young people to develop positive relationship, build confidence, increase self-esteem and to generally aid their personal development.
To deliver specific interventions that seek to support issues of mental health and wellbeing, physical health, sexual health, substance misuse and abuse, and which help young people improve personal skills and make better life choices.
