This tender falls under the health and social work services category and is set to take place in Chelmsford, within the South East region of the United Kingdom. The engagement will culminate in two events scheduled for 22nd September 2021, with a deadline for interest registration on 20th September 2021. This process is currently in the planning stage, focusing on early stakeholder engagement to inform future support initiatives. This procurement offers a significant opportunity for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), to contribute to important social services targeting domestic abuse victims. Organisations with expertise in mental health support, community outreach, and social care are well-suited to participate. Engaging in this tender allows businesses to expand their portfolio while making a meaningful impact on societal issues, thereby enhancing their reputation and fostering community relationships. ## Notice As part of Essex County Council's work, with regards to implementing our duties under the Domestic Abuse Act 2021, we have completed a needs assessment to identify the needs of victims of domestic abuse who reside within safe accommodation. Psychological and emotional wellbeing needs were present in nearly half of all victims. We want to ensure all DA victims have access to the right emotional wellbeing support at the right time in their journey. We are currently in the early stages of shaping our response to this issue and are seeking a wide range of view-points. We are therefore holding two stakeholder engagement events on 22/09/2021. The other will be one session held virtually in the afternoon. At these sessions we will seek feedback on the work we have done so far, including our understanding of the issue and would welcome discussions from a range of stakeholders with an interest in this area. To register interest for either event please email annabel.ostridge@essex.gov.uk and we will register your attendance and send you details. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/66249efb-f8e2-47d5-bbef-4308cc3d220f | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 16 Sep 2021 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 20 Sep 2021 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | ESSEX COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | CHELMSFORD | | Post town | Chelmsford | | Postcode | CM1 1QH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLH East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLH3 Essex | | ITL 3 | TLH36 Heart of Essex | | Local authority | Chelmsford | | Electoral ward | Moulsham and Central | | Westminster constituency | Chelmsford | | Delivery location | TLJ South East (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services - 98 - Other community, social and personal services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services - 98000000 - Other community, social and personal services ## Release History - 16 Sep 2021 at 08:17 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/66249efb-f8e2-47d5-bbef-4308cc3d220f - 2 Sep 2021 at 11:34 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/66249efb-f8e2-47d5-bbef-4308cc3d220f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/66249efb-f8e2-47d5-bbef-4308cc3d220f 16th September 2021 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
