## Summary

The Derbyshire County Council is seeking to engage a provider for the "CTP882 Falls Prevention: Research and Social Marketing Campaigns" project, aimed at addressing and preventing falls among older individuals in Derbyshire (excluding Derby City). This tender, part of the health and social work services category, is currently at the Award stage, with the contract valued at £65,000 set to run from 1st September 2018 to 31st August 2021. The tender period concluded on 2nd March 2018, and the award date was on 18th July 2018. The procurement process was conducted using the open procedure method.

This tender presents an opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in health research or social marketing to contribute to a vital public health initiative. Businesses with experience in conducting social research, developing marketing campaigns, or collaborating with public health organisations would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract, as they can leverage their expertise to enhance awareness and behavioural change regarding fall prevention among older adults.

## Notice

The Council is seeking a provider with a proven track record over 3 years, to deliver a combined research and social marketing campaign(s) across the county of Derbyshire (excluding Derby City) to address the impact of and help prevent falls among older people. The Council is looking to secure the services of an enthusiastic provider to create and deliver an innovative provision across three phases and take responsibility for working effectively with other stakeholders. The Council is prepared to consider a partnership bid to deliver each phase of the service. The research element (Phase 1) will be undertaken over the first 6 months by examining international and national research but primarily conducting local research on adults' awareness of, attitudes towards and behaviours around falls and falls prevention. This would ideally include methods designed to identify population groups most at risk of falling in Derbyshire, qualitative research, and a review of the current provision of falls prevention services provided across the county. Research will secure an evidence base to identify the awareness of, attitudes towards and behaviours around falls and falls prevention across: * The diverse communities of Derbyshire * Different age groups e.g. those who have fallen (65+), those at risk (65+), those affected i.e. carer's (all ages), those approaching older age (50-64) * Different genders * Different socio-economic groups * Specific targeted localities The research in Phase 1 will determine the design of the social marketing campaigns, target cohorts and precise messages (Phase 2 & 3) which will be directed at all those at risk of or affected by falls. The provider will also be required to work with existing services delivering falls prevention interventions to ensure messages are tested and incorporated into current practice. Social marketing messages will be designed to achieve what works best, with whom and how it is best delivered for the specific targeted group, in order to create the greatest impact on awareness of, attitudes towards and behaviours around falls and falls prevention. These messages will need to be age-friendly and delivered via the correct mediums informed by the Phase 1 research. This service has a value of between PS40,000 and PS65,000 over a three year period.
