The service aims to address the high rates of drug and alcohol-related deaths in the Kirklees district by offering support and treatment for individuals with substance use issues. The contract, valued at £202,532, will run from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026 with an option to extend for up to three additional years. The procurement process was conducted using the PSR Direct Award Process C, and the service will be provided within Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in hospital and related services, particularly those specialising in substance misuse treatment and support. The contract focuses on enhancing integrated responses to physical and mental health issues linked to drug and alcohol dependency, and includes provisions for long-term support and treatment in both inpatient and outpatient settings. Businesses with expertise in drug and alcohol treatment, secondary care, and community substance misuse services would be well-suited to compete for similar contracts, offering potential for growth and expansion in the healthcare sector.

## Notice

The Kirklees district has a high rate of drug and alcohol related deaths as well as a high proportion of drug and alcohol users who do not access community drug treatment services for support. This service will support with Better and more integrated responses to physical and mental health issues from the Menu of Interventions provided by the Office of Health Improvement and Disparities (OHID) (the funders). This will assist more individuals accessing the community treatment service for support with their drug and alcohol use. The service will support the treatment of drug and alcohol dependency in secondary care and help provide on-going support for people to stop or reduce their drug and alcohol use in the hospital as an inpatient and following discharge. The service will link with other community substance misuse services. Recognising that drug and alcohol dependency is a chronic, relapsing clinical condition that can lead to premature death, substance use is seen as a medical condition that can be treated, rather than as a lifestyle choice. The service supports a longer-term commitment to supporting people with substance use addiction. The service will increase the support offered to people accessing the Trusts services, to help them to stop using drugs and alcohol and to reduce harm from substance use. Awarding a contract following Direct Award Process C. 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026 with the option to extend for up to 3 years. PS202,532 including extensions.
