## Summary

Cambridgeshire County Council and Peterborough City Council are currently in the planning stage of a soft market test for the Healthy Schools Service. The procurement process, valued at £1,100,000, is focused on health and social work services and is located in the East of England, specifically within the councils' jurisdiction. Interested providers are invited to engage by submitting their responses to a questionnaire by 12:00 noon on 16th April 2018, as outlined in the Soft Market Testing document. The engagement period concludes on the same date, allowing time for feedback and insights from potential suppliers.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in health and social services to expand their operations in the public sector. Companies specialising in educational health programmes, wellness initiatives, or community health support services would be particularly well-suited to participate. The soft market test encourages providers to share their capabilities and ideas, which could influence the direction and structure of future tenders, thus paving the way for potential contracts and collaboration with local authorities.
