Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham City Council procured a service to deliver an alcohol behaviour-change intervention. Its purpose is to increase engagement with, and access to, alcohol treatment services among women in Nottingham, with particular focus on Black and Asian women identified through the council’s Health Equity Audit. This is a public health and social work service, classified under CPV 85000000. The requirement concerns campaign and intervention activity rather than the supply of goods or construction works. Delivery is for Nottingham and its communities, requiring an understanding of local health inequalities, alcohol-related support pathways and the barriers that can prevent women from accessing treatment.

The procurement is complete and has resulted in an active contract for the single lot. Nottingham City Council used a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. ICE CREATES LIMITED was awarded the contract on 26 February 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract runs from 26 February 2026 to 31 March 2030. Its value is £70,000 gross, inclusive of the stated amount, in GBP. The award covers health and social work services for the alcohol behaviour-change campaign. The selected supplier is ICE CREATES LIMITED, an SME based in Birkenhead.

This award demonstrates demand for targeted public-health communications and behaviour-change work that connects underserved groups with alcohol treatment. Suppliers seeking comparable work would need to show that they can design and deliver interventions for women, with culturally informed approaches for Black and Asian communities, and translate health-equity findings into practical engagement activity. Credibility would also depend on understanding alcohol treatment services, referral and access barriers, safeguarding considerations, and how to reach people who may not engage with mainstream provision. Relevant strengths include campaign strategy, creative content, community engagement, partnership working with treatment providers and local authorities, and the ability to evidence increased engagement with support services.
