MVRP Funding Neurodiversity Toolkit for Criminal Justice Services across Merseyside

Procurement identifier (OCID): ocds-h6vhtk-06bd3b

Description

This project represents the continuation and embedding phase of an established Neurodiversity Toolkit for

Criminal Justice Services across Merseyside. Building on previously developed resources, training, and

partnerships, the focus for 2026/27 is on system-wide implementation, scaling, and embedding of

neurodiversity-inclusive, trauma-informed practice across custody, courts, prisons, probation, and community services.

The programme supports neurodivergent individuals, their families, and professionals, and includes workforce

training, resource dissemination, and the development of Neurodiversity Champions. A key element is the

delivery of the NEST Workshop at HMP Liverpool, alongside strengthened multi-agency coordination, evaluation

(with LJMU), and lived-experience co-production.
