## Summary

The London Borough of Merton is conducting a tender for the "Development and implementation of a Social Prescribing Pilot for children and young people in Merton," a health services project aimed at improving child health outcomes. The procurement is currently in the Award stage, having published the award notice on 25th July 2022. The contract, valued at £84,926, is set to commence on 28th July 2022 and conclude on 23rd July 2023. The project focuses on initiatives to address child obesity and emotional well-being, making it particularly relevant in the current context of post-COVID recovery.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for organisations specialising in health services, particularly those with experience in community health and social prescribing. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are well-suited to compete, given their potential to deliver tailored, holistic health interventions. With a focus on collaborative and family-centred approaches, businesses that can demonstrate effective engagement strategies with children and families will be particularly advantageous in this procurement process.

## Notice

The London Borough of Merton (LBM) invites quotes from suitably experienced and qualified organisations to develop and implement a children and young people's social prescribing pilot in Merton in the east of the borough. This is where Social Prescribers/Link workers' will support children and their families/young people to achieve their health and well-being goals. This is focused on improving child healthy weight and low level emotional health and well-being outcomes and taking a holistic and family centred approach. This work is to respond to the impact of COVID on children and young people and families where evidence has shown marked increase in children who are overweight and obese (through the National Child Measurement Programme) as well as COVID impacting children and young people's emotional well-being.
