This tender, with a budget of £50,000, is in the Tender stage and is set to conclude on 12th July 2021. The selected suppliers are expected to deliver a total of 800 voices by 1st December 2021, providing valuable insights for addressing health inequalities. The initiative is classified under market research services, with delivery expected from suppliers based in the UK. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses focused on market research, community engagement, or public health analysis to engage with NHS England and contribute to significant social outcomes. Smaller enterprises and voluntary community sector organisations are particularly encouraged to apply, as their understanding of local demographics and communities could enhance the data collection process. Successful bidders will not only assist in amplifying unheard voices but will also strengthen their portfolio and network within the public sector, paving the way for future opportunities in health and social care projects. ## Notice The Authority is looking for a Supplier(s) to work with NHSEI NW Region to support delivery of the 1000 Voices Programme.
