This initiative falls under the services industry category and is located in the East Midlands, specifically Derby. The procurement process is at the tender stage, with a deadline for submission set for 11th August 2017. The research aims to inform the commissioning of primary and community health services tailored to meet the mental health needs of the LGBT community and will be conducted through a robust mixed-methods approach. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses involved in research and consultancy services, especially those with experience in health services and social issues. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would particularly benefit, given the emphasis on tailored and comprehensive methodologies to enhance mental health outcomes. Engaging in this research study could not only positively impact the community but also help participating organisations expand their portfolios and enhance their reputations in the public health sector. ## Notice To conduct a high quality, methodologically robust research study to inform how Nottingham City Clinical Commissioning Group can best commission primary and community health services to meet the mental health needs of LGBT people and to promote and support appropriate and timely mental health service uptake. The research will involve a literature review and a mixed methods approach to better understand the population, citizen story and stakeholder perspective. The research will include exploring experiences of services with a range of adults including young adults (16+) who may also have had recent experience of children's mental health services or experienced particular difficulties during their transition to adulthood, those of working age, and older people. We are also interested in understanding people's experiences of being treated as individuals i.e. considering their sexual orientation or gender identity at the same time as their religion or ethnicity for example.
