Primary aims
The primary aim of the Services is to engage children, young people, young adults and families in effective substance misuse interventions. To support Service Users in stopping or reducing their substance misuse and any associated offending behaviours, improving engagement in education, employment and training, maximising their health and social outcomes and aiding successful reintegration into mainstream services and the wider community. The Supplier is required to proactively engage Service Users in a variety of Sites and successfully engage Service Users with a wide range of wraparound support services. The Supplier must ensure Services are child focussed and be extremely flexible in how they are delivered both to meet individual Service User need and to adapt to changes in the wider services environment.
The Services are an integrated part of a holistic package of care and not stand alone. For the avoidance of doubt, this means that the Supplier Personnel will coordinate both the substance misuse specific and other elements of the prevention, treatment, recovery and reintegration packages, whilst also supporting wraparound activities including, but not limited to, appropriately managing mental health and wellbeing, risky sexual behaviour, smoking cessation, engagement in education, employment or training, diversionary activities and health improvement for Service Users.
Service Purpose
The Young People’s Substance Misuse Service must be a flexible and responsive service for children, young people, young adults and their families. It will:
• provide a range of substance misuse interventions to make Service Users aware of the risks including harm to themselves and others to encourage changes to attitude and behaviour; and
• deliver interventions to children, young people, young adults and their families at the earliest opportunity to prevent onset or escalation of need; and
• support Service Users with additional vulnerabilities either directly or in partnership with other services; and
• ensure Service Users are prepared and appropriately supported as they exit the service; and
• be young person friendly and responsive to the evolving need of individuals both in terms of those already engaged with the service and the wider population; and
• involve young people and Service Users in the development, planning, delivery and review of the service; and
• use technology and digital approaches to enhance and streamline service delivery; and
• provide access to, and directly offer, local opportunities to support Enfield residents.

• understand how to deliver young people’s and family services in a way that encourages uptake of interventions and effective outcomes; and
• champion whole family and multi-agency working to support vulnerable families, that is those experiencing multiple disadvantages; and
