This research project aims to develop analytical capabilities for measuring PFAS and to generate risk-assessment-ready data on PFAS occurrence in food packaging and other FCMs and their migration into food, enabling a better understanding of the extent to which these materials may contribute to PFAS detected in food relative to other sources of contamination. This information will help to reduce some of the current data gaps in the evidence base. This will therefore enable a more accurate assessment of the risk to human health as well as identify any issues to take through the FSA’s risk analysis process and support future policy requirements/decision making.

The City of York Council has an opportunity for Access Lift Installation, Servicing and Maintenance

Project background: Since 2014, City Hall has invested in embedding youth Independent Domestic Violence Advocates (IDVAs) into London’s Major Trauma Centres (MTCs). Since 2023, this programme of work, referred to as hospital-based domestic abuse advocacy (HBDAA), has been overseen and managed by the VRU. Prior to the VRU, this programme and investment had been overseen and managed by MOPAC within City Hill, aligned to the Mayor’s Police & Crime Plan (PCP). The HBDAA programme represents a violence reduction initiative, heavily aligned to the VRU’s own violence reduction strategies, most notably: the trusted relationship between a young person, and a trusted adult, as well as the concept of place, reaching young people where they are, and, in this case, leveraging a reachable moment in the lives of young people to break patterns of violence and harm. Additionally, this intervention sits within a wider programme of hospital-based initiatives, specifically, operating alongside the VRU’s hospital-based youth work (HBYW) programme, which embeds highly skilled and specialised youth workers into London’s four MTCs and eight London A&E units. Description of the service The purpose of embedding these IDVAs is to support children and young people who have been impacted by domestic abuse and other gender based harm; IDVAs are there to offer a supportive and stabilising presence in crisis or distress, and help young people cope and recover from the trauma of physical or psychological injury due to domestic abuse, and help disrupt future patterns of violence and harm. The service engages young people aged 11–25 who present at Major Trauma Centres (MTCs) as victims of domestic abuse, or who are identified as being at risk of future harm. IDVAs provide practical support, advocacy, and help to coordinate a broader safeguarding response for the young person, working alongside clinical and community partners to help young people access appropriate services and support. Support offered typically at the point of presentation may extend beyond that of the hospital, and into the community. Target audience The VRU expects the Service to proactively identify, assess, and engage, young people, aged 11-25, who present at MTCs with injuries resulting from domestic abuse, or other gender-based harms. The following eligibility criteria will apply to the young people offered the Service. A young person: - will present at one of the specific MTCs within the scope of this service, AND; will be aged between 11 and 25 years of age; Additionally, a young person: - will have been, or will be suspected as having been, the victim of domestic abuse, OR; will have been, or will be suspected as having been, the victim of child sexual abuse, OR; will have been, or will be suspected as having been, the victim of rape, OR; will have been, or will be suspected as having been, the victim of sexual exploitation; and, or where a suspected safeguarding issue has arisen. This list is not intended to be exhaustive, and the Provider will be expected to use their professional judgment, sometimes in collaboration with hospital staff, to identify forms of vulnerability that warrant intervention. Scope of delivery Services will be delivered in London’s four MTCs, namely: - King’s College Hospital - Royal London Hospital - St George’s Hospital - St Mary’s Hospital Whilst the principles of delivery will remain the same across all hospitals, it is important that the successful bidder demonstrates a strong understanding of, and connection to, the local communities and systems in which their allocated hospitals are situated. The specific outcomes which the VRU are seeking through this provision include, but are not limited to: - Supporting young people to access positive opportunities and support. - Disrupting cycles of violence and reducing violence and harm. - Ensuring that children and young people feel and are safe. - Reducing hospital (re)admissions/attendance. - Reducing offending / severity of offending.

This framework is for the provision of children's residential care across the West Midlands region. Coventry City Council is the lead local authority for the framework, which can be accessed by the 14 West Midlands Local Authorities/Trusts and their successors/any successor bodies of any of the 14 entities. The West Midlands Children's Residential Care Framework aims to be the primary means by which residential care placements are sourced in the region from the independent market. This is a framework re-opening and Tenderers are invited to bid for one or more of the Lots. Providers that are already on the framework can apply to be added to an additional Lot(s) and/or apply to add further Children's Residential Homes to the Framework. For example, if a Provider has already been awarded the framework agreement for Lots 1 and 2, they can now apply for Lot 3 and/or Lot 6. Similarly, if a Provider has already been awarded the framework agreement for Lots 1 and 2, they can apply to add another Children's Residential Home(s) to Lots 1 and/or 2 and apply to be added to an additional Lot(s).

The framework shall be re-opened at least annually and there will be additional re-openings, at any time if in the reasonable opinion of the Council the flexible framework needs to be re-opened to enable the Council and any Placing Authority to discharge their statutory duties in relation to Children in Care and the current number of providers and homes do not offer sufficient capacity in terms of residential placements available across the West Midlands region.
