## Summary

The NHS Shared Business Services is procuring an Advocacy Worker Service in North West London, aimed at providing independent advice and support for parent carers of adults with learning disabilities. This service, classified under health services, is at the award stage, with the contract commencing on 1st October 2021 and concluding on 31st March 2023. The procurement process was a direct method, initiated through a single tender action, with a total contract value of £57,000. The primary delivery address is located in East of England, United Kingdom, and the tender period previously ended on 30th September 2021.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in health services, particularly those focusing on community care, health promotion, and advisory services for individuals with learning disabilities. Companies that specialise in social care support, community outreach, and training services may find themselves well-positioned to compete for similar future contracts, especially those with experience in working alongside NHS services and understanding the needs of vulnerable groups. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to engage, as these entities often provide tailored and innovative solutions fitting within the commissioning goals of the NHS.

## Notice

The service provided meets a gap in Independent Advice and Support for Parent Carers of Adults with Learning Disabilities. This support covers, benefits, further education, housing, access to health for people with learning disabilities, concerns about services the person they care for is receiving and issues relating to carers own health and wellbeing. The service supports families whose son/daughter are transitioning from children's services into adult services ensuring continuity of support for parent carers who will be lifelong carers. The service identifies training options. The service also ensures that parents expertise is used in the ongoing development of local services. Additional information: A new contract is putting in place for a period of 18 months to afford the newly forming NHS North West London CCG time to agree the approach to commission this service at NWL ICS level in line with national and ICS guidance to ensure smoother, less complicated, non-duplicated service delivery.
