As part of the tendering process, expressions of interest are invited, with a deadline for bid submissions set for 12 noon on 12th September 2017. The contract is intended to start on 1st October 2017 and will run for three years, with an option for a two-year extension. The total contract value is £130,000, and it is classified under health and social work services, following a Request for Quotation procurement method. This opportunity presents significant growth potential for counselling services, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector organisations experienced in mental health and domestic violence issues. Businesses that can provide qualified counsellors who understand the complexities of domestic violence will be well-positioned to compete for this contract. Successful bidders will play a crucial role in enhancing the mental and emotional wellbeing of women, thereby contributing positively to the community. ## Notice NHS West London Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) is inviting expressions of interest and proposals to provide a counselling service to women who have suffered domestic violence. The CCG is seeking to establish a new contract for the provision of a Domestic Violence Survivor Counselling Service which will offer accessible one-to-one counselling to help women address the mental health impact of domestic violence, thereby enabling them to regain control, make informed choices for themselves and their children and live free from violence and abuse. The Service will involve an initial assessment session followed by 121 counselling sessions for up to 18 weeks. The counselling will improve women's mental and emotional wellbeing. The current service provision has until now been a grant funded service, which the CCG is now seeking to replace with a substantive contract for 3 years, with the potential for this to be extended by a further 2 years (5 years in total). The challenging budget has been used to date to resource a professional volunteer counsellor delivered service model. The contract on offer will require suitably qualified counsellors trained to understand the specific dynamics and issues associated with domestic violence.
