## Summary

The Essex County Council is currently in the planning stage of the procurement process for the "Mental Health Accommodation Market Engagement Event" aimed at enhancing mental health accommodation services. The event will be held virtually on 21st April 2021, providing an opportunity for stakeholders to engage in discussions about an Integrated Support Model focused on recovery. The engagement notice was published on 8th April 2021, and is classified under the health and social work services industry, specifically within the East of England region.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in mental health services or related sectors. By participating in the engagement event, businesses can gain insights into the council's requirements and how to align their services to better meet these needs, ultimately positioning themselves to compete for future contracts in the mental health accommodation sector.

## Notice

We are currently reviewing our Mental Health Accommodation based services and following that, ECC is seeking to commission an Integrated Support Model within a Tiered level of support services that are recovery focused with connectedness to community assets. Our Mental Health Accommodation services are pivotal to the mental health pathway hence will be targeted on prevention, prevent/avert crisis, promoting recovery, connectedness to universal services and support transition to settled accommodation. Details of the proposed services are still under review, however we are hosting a virtual market engagement event on Wednesday 21st April (held via Microsoft Teams) where we will be sharing our initial ideas. Please contact the following email address for further information and details on how to join. Kate Fabricant - email: kate.fabricant@essex.gov.uk
