The contract is expected to start on the 1st of October 2023 for a 3-year period, with the option to extend for two more years. The total contract value is £240,000. The service aims to raise awareness for residents through various means, including in-person events and online training for professionals. The tender process involves electronic submission and the submission deadline is on the 4th of May 2023. This opportunity presents a chance for businesses specialising in health and social work services to contribute to tackling tuberculosis in the Ealing community. Companies proficient in delivering public health awareness programs, community engagement services, and training for healthcare professionals are well-suited to compete for this tender. The initiative by the London Borough of Ealing aims to address the high TB incidence in the borough, particularly among diverse and vulnerable populations, offering a valuable opportunity for businesses to support public health initiatives through innovative and culturally competent approaches. ## Notice The London Borough of Ealing wishes to tender for a contract for the provision of a Tuberculosis (TB) Awareness Raising service. It is envisaged that subject to governance the TB Awareness Raising contract will commence on the 1st of October 2023 for a period of 3 years with the possibility of one two (2) year extension. The annual value is PS48,000 per annum with a total value of PS240,000 (if all extensions used). The service should provide awareness raising for residents through in-person events, stalls, and social media. This will also include community awareness taking place in a variety of settings such as libraries, faith settings, education areas, and NHS venues. The service should provide both in-person and online training for professionals who work with Ealing residents, so they themselves can raise awareness and signpost residents to services. This includes council staff, housing staff, voluntary and community sector groups, drug & alcohol teams, pharmacists, and primary care. The TB Awareness Service prevents an exacerbation of the disproportionate effects that TB has on vulnerable populations. Ealing currently has the 2nd highest TB incidence in London, and the 3rd highest in the country In 2011, Ealing was the 3rd most diverse borough in England & Wales with: * Largest Polish population (21,507) * Highest number of Afghans (6,789) * Highest number of Serbians (441) * 2nd highest number of Iranians (2,981) * 3rd highest Somali population (2,835), with a further 535 Somalilanders * 4th highest number of Arabs (10,076) In 2018, 82% of Ealing residents with TB were born outside of the UK, but the majority had been in the UK for a long time. Ealing is one of the highest London boroughs providing support for people seeking asylum, with Southall having the highest number of asylum seekers with no recourse to public funds. In terms of deprivation, a high risk factor for TB, Ealing is the 2nd highest employment/income deprived borough in West London. Four areas within Ealing are in the 10% most deprived areas in the country. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The London Borough of Ealing wishes to tender for a contract for the provision of a Tuberculosis (TB) Awareness Raising service.
