## Summary

The procurement process initiated by Medway Council involves a tender for the "Social Isolation Social Prescribing in Hoo" project, aimed at providing social prescribing interventions for isolated older individuals within the ME3 postcode area. This service is classified under other community, social, and personal services, with a total value of £41,340. The tender is currently active and follows an open procurement method, with the tender period ending on 24th December 2019. The contract is set to commence on 1st February 2020 and will continue until 31st January 2023. The delivery location for this project is in the South East region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) involved in social and community services. Businesses specialising in social care, community engagement, or health and wellbeing initiatives would be well-positioned to compete for this contract, especially those with experience in delivering services tailored to older adults and addressing social isolation. The project relies on a proactive approach to community referrals, enhancing the potential impact on local service delivery and fostering relationships with various partner organisations.

## Notice

Medway Council are seeking an organisation to deliver the Connected Communities Project on the Hoo Peninsula. The Provider will deliver the intervention as set out by the Commissioner for the programme. They will be required to recruit a part-time SPLW to deliver the social prescribing intervention to socially isolated older people with an ME3 postcode. Referrals into the service will be from a wide range of partners and organisations. As well as referrals from the Provider's existing pathways, the commissioner will direct any referrals from the Connected Communities programme, where the referee has an ME3 postcode, to the Provider. The SPLW will contact referrals within 5 working days of receiving them and offer the service user an initial appointment. This should be delivered face to face, either at the service user's home or a location that suits them.
