## Summary

The North East London NHS Foundation Trust Shared Service has initiated an open tender for the provision of welfare support services, specifically requiring two staff to deliver specialist welfare benefits and debt advice across the Highgate Mental Health Centre. This tender falls under the category of welfare services not delivered through residential institutions. The contract, with an estimated value of £70,000, will commence on 5 May 2025 and end on 4 May 2027. The procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, with applications due by 25 April 2025. The primary location for the services is Highgate, London, covering 15 wards in the east and 10 wards in the west of the centre, servicing a total of 236 patients.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in welfare services and debt advice. Businesses experienced in delivering welfare benefits services within healthcare settings are particularly well-suited to apply, given the scope of providing targeted support to mental health inpatients.
