## Summary

The NHS Shared Business Services is managing a procurement process for the "Music for Life for People with Dementia in West London" project, aimed at providing music-based programmes for individuals living with dementia. This service is crucial for supporting residents in care homes and has been an ongoing initiative since April 2019. Currently, this direct procurement process has reached the award stage, with the contract scheduled to run from 1st April 2021 to 30th September 2021, following an extension of six months with a total value of £9,500, increasing from the previous contract value of £19,000.

This tender presents significant opportunities for stakeholders in the healthcare services sector, particularly those providing arts and music programmes tailored to vulnerable populations such as individuals with dementia. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as the procurement method supports single tender actions that are typically below threshold. Businesses skilled in crafting engaging, therapeutic experiences through music and arts should consider competing for this contract to expand their service offerings in the health sector.

## Notice

To provide a range of music-based programmes for people living with dementia, including individual and group based arts projects, outings and visits linking to local organisations and opportunities, with an emphasis on supporting people live in care homes. Additional information: This is an existing service that has been in place since April 2019 for West London CCG and Central London CCG. The CCGs have assessed that the service needs to continue whilst a review is completed and new commissioning plans are developed by the newly formed North West London CCG from April 2021. The existing contract is being modified through contract variation to extend its term by 6 months. The existing value of the contract of PS19,000 will increase by PS9,500 during this additional term.
