## Summary

Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole Council (BCP Council) has recently updated their procurement process for the "BCP Food and Energy Support Fund – small grants scheme." This initiative falls under the Health and Social Work Services category and targets aiding residents within the UKK24 region (which includes Bournemouth, Christchurch, and Poole) who are struggling with living costs, specifically food and energy costs. The procurement stage was tender and is now in the award stage. The procurement method utilised a limited procedure due to the absence of competition for technical reasons. Notably, the highest bid taken into consideration was revised to £240,750. The contract was signed on 7th May 2024, and one bid was received electronically.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses, especially those in the voluntary and community sectors, to secure funding aimed at supporting local residents. Organisations with experience and capacity to deliver health and social work services, particularly in managing small grants schemes and addressing food and energy poverty, would find this tender particularly suited to their capabilities. Given the focused nature of the procurement on technical reasons, businesses with unique competencies or those already embedded within the local support networks could leverage this to grow their profiles and further contribute to community resilience and well-being.
