The rationale for the relative importance of the key criteria, and the rationale for choosing the provider with reference to the key criteria is explained below:

The service must be responsive to changes in substance use and other issues relating to children and young people, for example developing education campaigns to new risks such as Nitrous Oxide and developing responses to a rising complexity of need.

Branching Out is an active participant on Calderdale safeguarding Childrens Board subgroups, the Youth Justice Board, Channel Panel, Drug strategy work stream groups and a wide range of children and young people’s services workstreams ensuring collaborative working across the system.

3. Integration, collaboration & service sustainability: 20%. The Branching Out service is co-located at the Orange Box, with Calderdale’s young people focused services, maximising on integration and collaboration. 83% of Branching Out cases involve multi-agency working compared with 62% nationally (NDTMS). Branching Out have a worker embedded in the Youth Justice Service, and relationships with the local education system, delivering sessions in Calderdale Schools and colleges. They also deliver drugs awareness training across Calderdale via the Safeguarding Board. Branching Out regularly participate with partners from the night-time economy and violence reduction unit to support a focus on areas of concern.

4.Improving access, reducing health inequalities and facilitating choice: 20%

Branching Out have improved access to under-represented groups, including, developing a specialist response to multiple disadvantaged groups with alternative methods of treatment delivery and outreach. Humankind have invested in developing a model of engagement with BAME communities, establishing a pool of BAME community connectors/champions to support the development of culturally sensitive interventions to be piloted in Calderdale.

5.Social value: 20%. The service supports the local area and local employment with 83% of employees being Calderdale residents. Cleaners and maintenance staff are employed by Humankind’s dedicated social enterprise More Time UK Ltd, which employs local people.
