The aim is to deliver positive outcomes, improve lives and prevent and reduce crisis by offering local community-based activities wherever possible. \nThe Trust is commissioning Targeted Short Break Services for the City - those not requiring a social work assessment, but meeting other criteria such as having an EHCP, or being in receipt of DLA or a diagnosis of some sort.  \nA UK3: Planned procurement notice - Notice identifier: 2025/S 000-054076\nProcurement identifier (OCID): ocds-h6vhtk-059470  was published 4 September 2025.",
