## Summary

The University of Nottingham is seeking a provider for a contract titled "Mental Health Resilience training," falling under the industry category of specialist training services. This contract, which is part of a direct procurement method through a single tender action, has a value of £35,251 and spans a contract period from 25th April 2022 to 26th March 2023. The procurement process is currently in the award stage, with an award notice published on 1st July 2022. The service is to be delivered at the University’s Kings Meadow Campus located in Nottingham, East Midlands.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in mental health training, particularly those well-versed in bespoke educational services for universities and other institutions. With the University’s prior positive experiences with Tough Cookie, the selected supplier, companies that can offer tailored, high-quality mental health resilience training are likely to be competitive, especially micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of adapting their services to meet specific client needs. This project also emphasises the importance of continuity and tailored service delivery, making it conducive for businesses that can ensure a bespoke approach to training.

## Notice

Tough Cookie has a pre-existing relationship with the Faculty of Social Science following the delivery of bespoke mental health resilience training offered to the School of Geography across six sessions between October and December 2021. Funded by a Cascade Grant, this training was open to both students and staff and was followed by a qualitative and quantitative review of its successes and limitations. This review has been used to further hone the training to the needs of UoN students and staff. Tough Cookie are a unique provider of mental health resilience training, being one of the only companies to work across business, charity, and education sectors. Given the specific requirements of not only the faculty, but also each of the schools within it, Tough Cookie's ability to tailor delivery to specific needs and timetables makes them perfect for the project. Tough Cookie have designed the scheme to fit with not only the faculty's requirements but also the specific rhythm of our teaching and learning semesters. Also, given the series of important lessons learned from the pilot scheme there is a crucial element of continuity with getting Tough Cookie to continue with their work at UoN - as well as using the same trainer. This enables an iterative and reflexive element to the scheme to ensure its success. While small (n=12), the pilot was highly effective with very positive feedback. Working with Tough Cookie enables us to scale the project while maintaining local, school/department level buy in and specificity. Given all this it is fundamental that Tough Cookie are part of the project, as no other supplier would be able to deliver to our specific needs.
