Changing Futures Main Delivery Service

Tender description

Delivery of a primary frontline support and learning and development activity under Nottingham City's Changing Futures Programme. The Nottingham City Integrated Care Partnership (ICP) has successfully bid for national funding as part of the Department of Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) 'Changing Futures' (CF) programme. This will be a short term programme delivered to the end of March 2024, providing specialist services, partnership delivery models and developing system change in order to achieve better outcomes for people who experience the most significant Severe Multiple Disadvantage (SMD). SMD is defined within the programme as affecting people who experience at least 3 of 5 forms of disadvantage, including: homelessness, substance misuse, mental ill-health, domestic violence, and interaction with the criminal justice system. The objective of the CF programme is to ensure that people living in Nottingham City who experience SMD receive joined up, flexible, person-centred care from the right services, at the right time, and in the right place to meet their needs. The focus of the programme is on achieving system change to enable the development and delivery of joined up services that provide effective healthcare, support and other forms of assistance to the most excluded, marginalised and vulnerable individuals who experience SMD. Partnership working is integral to delivering the CF programme and achieving the ambitions for system change.
