## Summary

The Bradford Metropolitan District Council is seeking to improve breastfeeding support during the COVID-19 pandemic with the contract titled "Covid-19 Breastfeeding support - Breastfeeding Buddies." This service falls within the health and social work services category. The procurement process has reached the Award stage, with the contract awarded on 6th October 2020. The contract, valued at £56,997.12, is set to commence on 1st April 2021 and will run until 31st March 2022. The primary location for delivery is Yorkshire and the Humber.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for SMEs and VCSEs, particularly those involved in health services and community support. Businesses with expertise in delivering health and social work services, especially in breastfeeding and maternal health, would be well positioned to compete for similar contracts. As the need for alternative healthcare provisions arises, organisations that can adapt to new delivery methods and engage with affected communities stand to benefit from this procurement opportunity.

## Notice

The current COVID-19 pandemic has affected the delivery of breastfeeding support in Bradford district, visitors including peer supporters are not able to be present within the maternity provision in both BRI and AGH and therefore alternative provision has had to be developed.
