The procurement stage is planning, with a future notice date set for 1 October 2024. The initiative, valued at £235,000, aims to reduce health inequalities and promote wellbeing within the region (UKI52). The programme includes recruiting and training Health Champions from the community, offering RSPH Level 2 accredited training, and engaging with the public at events across the borough. This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in public health, training, and community outreach services. Companies with experience in organising health-related events, providing accredited training, or working collaboratively with local government and voluntary sectors will be well-positioned to fulfil this contract. Engaging with this procurement process could lead to significant business growth by establishing long-term relationships with the London Borough of Havering, enhancing local health service delivery, and contributing positively to community health objectives. ## Notice My Health Matters (MHM) is a community health initiative commissioned and funded by LBH that has been successfully delivered for ten years. The MHM team actively engages with the public at various events across the borough, discussing health-related topics and directing individuals to appropriate local services for further support and information.

Once qualified, Health Champions receive signposting materials and ongoing support, including monthly newsletters.
