Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham (LBHF) has completed a procurement process for the services of a Portuguese-speaking Outreach Worker. The contract aims to provide targeted outreach to Portuguese-speaking communities, particularly Brazilian women, within the local sex industry. This initiative is situated in London, specifically at the Hammersmith Broadway sexual health clinic, and falls under the industry category of 'Social work and related services.'

The agreement, valued at £88,496.49, began on 18th August 2026 and is set to end on 17th August 2027, with the possibility of a one-year extension subject to performance and funding approvals.

Such contracts not only offer financial growth potential but also enhance public service impact by helping to address unmet community needs, particularly among vulnerable populations.
