## Summary

The Somerset County Council is seeking proposals for the "HIV Prevention and Health and Wellbeing Service" as part of an open tender process aimed to reduce HIV prevalence in Somerset. The tender is classified under health and social work services, with a total budget of £50,000 available for the selected service provider. The tender period is ongoing and will close on 21 October 2019, while the contract is expected to commence on 1 April 2020 and continue until 31 March 2022. This initiative is anticipated to operate within the South West region of the United Kingdom.

This opportunity offers significant potential for growth, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in health services, particularly those focused on sexual health and HIV support. Businesses that can provide evidence-based interventions and demonstrate a commitment to promoting informed and healthy choices around sexual health are well-suited to compete for this contract, which aims to foster a supportive and sex-positive environment for individuals at higher risk of HIV and sexually transmitted infections.

## Notice

The aim of the HIV Prevention and Health and Wellbeing Service is to help reduce the prevalence of HIV in Somerset and to support people living with HIV (PLWHIV) to keep well and lead independent lives. The Service will need to be sex-positive and provide evidence-based interventions to support people with a higher risk of acquiring HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) to make informed, healthy and responsible choices around their sexual health.
