## Summary

The London Borough of Newham is inviting suppliers to participate in a tender titled "Supporting residents with learning disabilities and/or mental/physical health issues (and their carers) to cook healthy food on a budget and lose weight." This procurement falls within the health and social work services industry category and is currently in the Award stage. The contract, valued at £25,000, commenced on 15th November 2021 and is set to conclude on 31st March 2022. Highlights include a previous tender period that closed on 2nd November 2021, showcasing the council’s commitment to addressing health issues among its residents.

This opportunity is particularly beneficial for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) with expertise in health and social services. Organisations well-equipped to assist residents, particularly those with learning disabilities or mental and physical health challenges, will find this tender relevant. Such enterprises can leverage their skills in promoting healthy living and weight management to foster community engagement and business growth in the Newham area.

## Notice

Newham is a demographically diverse borough with a high rates of overweight/obesity and disproportionally high numbers of residents experiencing long-term health problems associated with excess weight. This pattern is particularly evident among our poorest residents, those with physical/mental health problems and residents from ethnically minoritised groups. The council already commissions Xyla Health & Wellbeing to provide a structured 12-week Tier-2 Weight Management service for Newham residents aged 18 years and above. However, this kind of programme is not suitable for everyone. The Council is therefore looking to work with partner organisations from Newham or neighbouring boroughs to develop and test ways to help more residents lose weight. Specifically, we want to hear from organisations with experience in this area that are able to provide support for residents with learning disabilities and/or mental/physical health issues (and their carers) to develop cooking skills, shop for healthy food on a budget and lose weight.
