Summary of the contracting process

The Walsall Council is currently seeking providers for the "Making Connections Walsall Programme Hubs" as part of an open tender process. This initiative, aimed at addressing loneliness and social isolation among older adults in Walsall, will run until the tender deadline on 9 May 2017. The expected contract period is from 1 July 2017 to 30 June 2019. The programme focuses on community-based social services, classified under the CPV code 85322000, and involves the establishment of four local hubs to facilitate connections for lonely older individuals across various regions in Walsall.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) that are experienced in providing social services and have a local understanding of Walsall’s demographics. Businesses that specialise in community engagement, social initiatives, or support services tailored to older adults would be particularly well-suited to compete. By participating, these organisations can address critical social needs within the community and potentially expand their service offerings through collaboration with local hubs.
