## Summary

NHS Gloucestershire Integrated Care Board (ICB) is spearheading the procurement process for an anonymous drop-in support service aimed at children and young people in Gloucestershire. Categorised under health services in the services industry, the procurement method utilised is the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) under the Health Care Services Regulations 2023. This direct award process eliminates the need for prior publication of a call for competition. The contract, valued approximately at £130,000, has been formally awarded on 22 December 2025, with a proposed contract length of 12 months starting from 1 October 2025.

This tender provides distinct opportunities for businesses specialising in health services to expand their offerings and impact within the Gloucestershire area. Particularly, it favours small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like Let's Talk Well, already delivering high-calibre, face-to-face counselling services that align with NHS Gloucestershire ICB's goals of reducing health inequalities. Businesses excelling in service delivery, charitable fundraising, and meeting legislative requirements would find this contract an advantageous platform to showcase their capabilities and further their client base.
