## Summary

The Crown Commercial Service is planning a procurement process for the "Conversion Therapy - Victim Support Service", aimed at providing a helpline and website for individuals impacted by conversion therapy practices. The total value of the project is £360,000, with a contract period commencing on 25th March 2022 and concluding on 24th March 2024. The procurement process will follow an open procedure and is currently in the planning stage, with a future notice date set for 22nd December 2021. This initiative falls under the category of helpdesk and support services and is located in the United Kingdom.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) to engage in a significant support service project. Businesses specialising in helpline management, website development, and pastoral support services would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. By participating in this procurement, successful bidders will have the chance to enhance their service portfolios while contributing to a vital support system for vulnerable individuals affected by conversion therapy.

## Notice

The Authority requires the development, set-up and operation of a helpline and website that will direct clients to relevant, existing services and provide initial pastoral support to individuals who have gone through, are going through, or are at risk of conversion therapy practices. The helpline and website will be collectively known as the Conversion Therapy Victim Support Service. The service will be required to direct clients to existing support and to provide information and, when necessary, direct support to vulnerable persons, whilst the website will be expected to provide public information and resources on the topic of conversion therapy. That the service required provides guidance and signposting to relevant services that users may require, such as counselling, options for making a report to the police, and other public services such as emergency housing. The service should also provide support to professionals who may be concerned about an instance of conversion therapy and are seeking support on what action to take.
