This procurement falls under the health services category and is classified as a service contract. The tender is currently active, with the submission deadline set for 5th December 2019. The contract is anticipated to commence on 1st February 2020 and will run for a period of 13 months, concluding on 28th February 2021. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in support services for vulnerable individuals, particularly those with experience in health and social care. Companies equipped to deliver trauma-informed services and possessing a strong understanding of the needs of male survivors of sexual abuse would be well-suited to compete. The contract value is approximately £59,833, allowing for potential growth in service provision capabilities, while contributing to vital community support initiatives. ## Notice NHS England South East seeks expressions of interest from providers who have the capability to provide a male ISVA Support Worker to drive up awareness of support for male survivors of rape and sexual abuse in Hampshire and deliver Independent Sexual Violence Advisor (ISVA) services to males across Hampshire. The worker employed by the successful provider is expected to already have/gain accreditation in the Male Survivor Quality Standards through accreditation with LimeCulture. The successful provider will work with Hampshire County Council's contracted manager of ISVA services, Yellow Door. The service will promote and increase the number of male survivors coming forward to seek help and support an existing ISVA provider to deliver a pro-active service to males who have experienced rape or sexual abuse through risk assessment and safety planning; enabling them to access statutory and other services they need and ensuring they are kept informed and supported as their case progresses through the criminal justice system, if that is the route they choose. Key aspects of the service are outlined in the eProcurement portal. It is envisaged that this contract will be delivered by one, full-time, male ISVA Support Worker with Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) clearance. It is anticipated that the contract will start on 1st February 2020 and run for a period of 13 months through to 28th February 2022. This procurement is being carried out by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioners.
