About

The Police & Crime Commissioner for Cumbria awarded a contract to Barnardo Services Ltd for an early intervention child mentor service in Cumbria to support children at risk of offending.

The service provides a holistic and trauma-informed approach to divert children away from the criminal justice system, prevent unnecessary criminalisation, and reduce involvement with statutory services.

It operates alongside Cumbria Constabulary's Child Centred Policing Teams in North, West, and South Cumbria, focusing on a Child Mentor model that delivers tailored, needs-led, one-to-one support to children showing early signs of risk-taking behaviour and vulnerability to criminalisation.

The service partners with other support organisations to build a whole-system approach and refers cases to other interventions where relevant.

The contract period is from 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2024, with an option to extend for 12 months to 31 March 2025.

The estimated annual budget range is £130,000-£150,000 (excluding VAT) per annum.

The contract value is £439,596.96.
