Summary of the contracting process

Wigan Council, a public authority under sub-central government, has recently completed the procurement process for providing "Mental Wellbeing Training and Education" services. The contract, aimed at engaging Voluntary, Community, Faith, and Social Enterprise (VCFSE) sector organisations across Wigan Borough, was awarded to Cedars Therapy Limited. The procurement stage has moved from an initial tender to a contract award, which is now active as of 2nd June 2025. This service contract, classified under "Education and training services," will operate for a year starting from June 2025, with opportunities for extension up until February 2028, pending annual review outcomes. The overall value of the contract is £45,355, under a limited procurement method due to its "Below threshold" nature. Key locations for service delivery include Wigan and broader UK regions.

This contract presents significant growth opportunities within the public health and education sectors, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) like Cedars Therapy Limited, which focus on providing educational and training services. Businesses specialising in mental health education can leverage such contracts to expand their portfolio, network within the VCFSE sector, and establish a reputation for delivering impactful training solutions. Due to the nature of this tender, companies with a robust framework for delivering both in-person and virtual training services in mental well-being would be well-suited to compete and potentially benefit from future extensions of this contract.
