In plain English

Ashfield District Council is looking for a single organisation to run a 19-month school-based family support pilot in Kirkby. The service will help families facing money problems, low confidence, social isolation or wellbeing challenges by offering practical, early support through schools rather than traditional service routes.

What the buyer wants

• Design and deliver school-based family wellbeing support services in the Kirkby area • Engage families experiencing financial pressure, social isolation or wellbeing challenges • Provide practical, trusted early intervention that complements existing services without duplicating them • Run the pilot from January 2027 to July 2028 (19 months), with possible 6-month extension if performance is satisfactory

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: You must have an office in Nottinghamshire and deliver services in that area only. This is a specialist wellbeing and family support contract, not a trade-based service, so tradespeople (builders, electricians, cleaners, etc.) would not be eligible unless they operate as a registered wellbeing or social support organisation.
