The brief

Brighter Futures for Children is a not-for-profit company, owned by, but independent of, Reading Borough Council.

We took over the responsibility for the delivery of children's services in Reading in December 2018.

We work closely with partners in the local community and key organisations including the council, police, public health and voluntary groups.

We are responsible for the delivery of children's social care, early help & prevention, education services (including SEND).

This also includes fostering and adoption, the Youth Offending Service and traded services with schools.

Brighter Futures for Children is considering options for commissioning supervised contact services and welfare visits.

Commissioners would like to undertake a soft market testing exercise.

This gives potential providers and other stakeholders the opportunity to express their interests and feed in their views about a potential service model and service definitions.

The commissioners will use the information to appraise options and further develop the specification.
