This project falls under the health and social work services category, with a total budget of £42,000. The tender period is currently active, with applications due by 25th August 2021. The project is set to begin on 8th November 2021 and conclude on 7th November 2022, focusing specifically on collaborative research to improve service delivery and address health inequalities in the community. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in health research and evaluation, particularly those with expertise in sexual health services. Companies that are small to medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be particularly well-suited to compete due to the emphasis on innovation and tailored service delivery. Engaging in this project could bolster a firm's profile in public health initiatives while contributing to vital improvements in local health service provision. ## Notice Derbyshire County and Derby City Council require a provider with a proven track record of research and evaluation to undertake a collaborative research project with Derbyshire Community Health Service NHS Foundation Trust, (DCHS NHS FT) the provider of the Derbyshire Integrated Sexual Health Service (ISHS), which will include developing the research skills of the ISHS team. We are interested in working with providers who can demonstrate specific skills, interests, and passion in working with sexual health and improving services for those who experience health inequalities. Derbyshire ISHS provides open access, confidential, non- judgemental services including Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) and Blood Borne Virus (BBV) testing, treatment and management; the full range of contraceptive provision, health promotion and prevention. The current economic challenges, pressure on resources, and changes in service delivery as a result of Covid 19, necessitate the need to ensure that sexual health service provision continues to meet the diverse needs of the local population, delivering best value for money. The vision for the project is an outcome focused approach that supports increased uptake in the use of services and the upskilling in the research skills amongst the ISHS team.
