The procurement stage is currently active, with a tender value of £375,000 and a tender deadline of 14th December 2022. The contract period is planned to start on 1st March 2023 and end on 1st March 2024, providing an opportunity for businesses to participate in enhancing NHS workforce recruitment through volunteer initiatives. This tender by Health Education England seeks to engage businesses interested in education and training services to contribute to the expansion of healthcare volunteer programs. Companies capable of developing workforce recruitment strategies and resources to support volunteers in pursuing careers in health and care will find this opportunity well-suited for collaboration. The open procedure invites interested parties to develop and implement initiatives aimed at increasing the number of volunteers transitioning to healthcare careers, thereby supporting the local NHS workforce recruitment needs. ## Notice The purpose of this Invitation to Tender is to expand the impact of the Volunteer to Career programme led in partnership by NHS Health Education England and Helpforce. The first cohort of programme launched in June 2021, the second in September 2022, and aims to positively impact NHS workforce recruitment needs at a local level through the design of Volunteer to Career initiatives. NHS Organisations are supported with funding to support senior clinicians to work with volunteer service teams to design and develop specific roles to be undertaken by volunteers according to the local workforce recruitment needs. A key measure of the success of the programme is to see an increase in the number of volunteers who have an interest in pursuing a career in health and care after their volunteering experience. Learning from the programme will be scaled and spread through the development of resources, tools, learning, case studies and evidence-based models/initiatives developed within the projects and shared with other organisations.
