## Summary

The Norfolk County Council is in the planning stage for the procurement of "Information Advice and Advocacy Services." This initiative falls under the health and social work services industry category and aims to improve the delivery of information, advice, and advocacy needed to support community independence in Norfolk. An engagement event is scheduled for the morning of 22nd March 2021, where interested providers can discuss the council's intentions and potential service delivery risks. Interested parties must register on the procurement system by 17th March 2021 to attend the event.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health, social work, and community services to grow and expand their operations in Norfolk. Organisations that focus on providing information and advocacy services, as well as those with experience in collaborative service delivery models, would be particularly well-suited to compete. By engaging in this procurement process, businesses can position themselves as key partners in supporting the local community and addressing the council's strategic needs.

## Notice

Good Information and advice is core to supporting people to remain as independent as possible which in turn helps people lead healthier and more independent lives. In Norfolk we commission a range of advice services that support a range of services delivered by third sector organisations through a partnership approach. The information, advice and advocacy contracts are approaching the final 12 months of their term and the Council are currently working with relevant stakeholders to scope the requirements for a new model of service delivery.Any future requirement may be split into separate lots based around specific service provision.
