Summary

Machine-generated summary

The UK Home Office is procuring support services for Unaccompanied Asylum-Seeking Children who arrive in the UK without a parent or guardian. The services ensure immediate needs are met upon arrival in Kent or elsewhere, before children enter local authority care, and provide information and support to navigate the asylum process. Two service areas are procured: delivery of services at Kent Intake Unit and delivery of orientation sessions. Services are delivered on an as-required basis according to each case. The buyer is the Home Office, acting under its statutory duty to safeguard children. No estimated value, deadline or bid details are stated in the notice.

Description

The Home Office (the Authority) has a statutory duty under Section 55 of the Borders, Citizenship and Immigration Act 2009 to discharge its immigration and asylum functions having regard to the need to safeguard and promote the welfare of children in the UK. This includes Unaccompanied Asylum-Seeking Children (UASC) who arrive in the UK and enter the immigration system without a parent or guardian. The Support Services for UASC ensure that their immediate needs are met upon arrival in Kent, or elsewhere, prior to entering the care of a local authority. Additionally, there is a need to ensure UASC have access to information and support to help them navigate the asylum process. The services will operate alongside, and in collaboration with the Authority and a range of other services and Authority suppliers, to enable the effective operation of the system to manage and support UASC. It is recognised that service users may require only one, or a combination of these services at any given time. Therefore, all services areas must be available, but would be delivered on an as-required basis, according to the needs of each individual case. The core service areas are: Service Area 1: Delivery of Services at Kent Intake Unit (KIU) Service Area 2: Delivery of Orientation Sessions
