Description

Warwickshire County Council (WCC) are currently looking at the services they commission for children and young people's mental health and emotional wellbeing. Following on from initial market and wider stakeholder engagement, they would like to hear from providers to understand their thoughts about the potential service model and how providers could deliver future 0-25 mental health and emotional wellbeing services for children and young people in Warwickshire.

There are two methods of taking part in this market testing exercise. The first is completion of the written questions featured below in section 6 of this document. Providers are asked to complete these questions and send back to commissioners by close of play (17:00hrs) on Thursday 19th June. You should submit your completed questionnaire by uploading via CSW jets

The second method of taking part in this market testing exercise is by participation in a one to one session of approximately 30 minutes length on Wednesday 18th June between 1pm and 4pm or on Thursday 19th June between 11am and 1.30pm. If you wish to participate, please follow this link to book your slot https://forms.office.com/e/ieweGja3FS .
