## Summary

The Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council has completed the procurement process for the Older Adults Pathway Service, with the award announced on 8 March 2019. This service, aimed at providing a high-quality falls prevention Physical Activity Pathway for older adults aged 60 and over in Sandwell, is classified under health and social work services. The contract period runs from 1 April 2019 to 31 March 2020. The tender was issued through an open procedure, and the procurement stage is now marked as complete, supporting a pressing local need identified through data showing higher than average injury rates from falls in the region.

This procurement presents valuable opportunities for businesses in the health and social care sectors, particularly those specialising in community health services, physical well-being, and health-related activities targeted at older adults. Firms capable of delivering innovative and effective physical activity programmes could contribute significantly to the local community's well-being while potentially expanding their service offerings and client base in the West Midlands area.

## Notice

The Metropolitan Borough Council of Sandwell is seeking expressions of interest from suitably experienced and competent Providers of a comprehensive, high quality and cost effective falls prevention Physical Activity Pathway Service for older adults, who are over the age of 60 and reside in the Metropolitan Borough of Sandwell. Sandwell Trends (a website containing data and resources on Sandwell - https://www.sandwelltrends.info) shows that Sandwell is higher than the national average for injurious falls rates/prevalence from 2016-2017. Physical activity is proven to help with stability and functional fitness in older adults and the implementation of the pathway could potentially reduce the amount of injurious and non-injurious falls in Sandwell.
