This procurement falls under the services category, specifically targeting health training services. The tender period concludes on 21st April 2020, with anticipated contract commencement on 5th May 2020, and lasting until 5th October 2020. The project aims to address the specific concerns of diverse communities in Birmingham related to the Covid-19 pandemic and will involve communication and engagement strategies that consider cultural sensitivities. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for local organisations, especially those specialising in health services, public relations, and community engagement, particularly towards BAME, disabled, and LGBT communities. Those with experience in culturally sensitive communication strategies, health promotion, or community outreach will find this tender particularly relevant. Collaborations or consortia from grassroots organisations are encouraged, creating a platform for SMEs to contribute meaningfully to public health amidst the ongoing pandemic. ## Notice Birmingham is a hugely diverse city. Birmingham City Council recognises that different black and minority ethnic (BAME), disabled and Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transsexual (LGBT) communities may have specific concerns or issues resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic coupled with a limited access to the relevant official information and guidance. We are keen to support all our local citizens to protect their health using national Government guidance (see https://www.gov.uk/coronavirus ) and maintain their wellbeing during this challenging period. Public Health Division are inviting local grass roots organisations (separately, or as part of a consortium/ consortia) that work with BAME, disabled and LGBT communities to develop a communication and engagement campaign which seeks to: - Further understand specific issues around Covid 19 faced by particular BAME, disabled and LGBT communities - Work with Public Health to develop appropriate messages to tackle the spread of Covid 19 and provide the most appropriate wellbeing advice - Use effective and appropriate culturally sensitive methods, which do not rely on face to face engagement, to get these messages out into these communities. The communities we would like you to work with are: Community 1: BAME communities We would like organisations to focus on: 1. Pakistani and Kashmiri communities 2. Other South-Asian communities 3. Eastern European, including Polish community 4. Roma Gypsy communities 5. Migrant, asylum seekers and refugee communities 6. Black Afro-Caribbean community Community 2: Disabled communities We would like organisations to focus on: 1. Deaf and hard of hearing community 2. Blind and sight impaired community 3. People with learning disabilities. Community 3: LGBT communities We would like organisations to focus on all four groups within the LGBT community.
