The tender, classified under the health sector, is currently at the award stage, with a contract value of £320,000. The contract was signed on 16 November 2021, following an open procurement method that allowed for electronic submissions. The successful supplier, Urban Roots, operates primarily in Glasgow, with the project expected to span the local areas of Govan, Gorbals, and Priesthill/Househillwood. This project presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in community health services, gardening, and social engagement. Businesses that can demonstrate relevant experience in delivering community-based programmes and are versed in working with disadvantaged populations would be particularly well-suited to participate in future tenders of a similar nature. Additionally, companies offering innovative approaches to using greenspaces for health and wellbeing could find this an ideal platform to expand their reach and impact within the community. ## Notice The Food for Thought programme will work principally but not exclusively in the Thriving Neighbourhood areas of Govan, Gorbals and Priesthill/Househillwood, engaging population groups who experience significant social and health inequalities. The Shields Community Garden has provided an opportunity to connect people to non-medical supports and resources within the local community as part of the wider COPC (Community Oriented Primary Care) approach that has been adopted within East Pollokshields and this work will continue to inform the development of social and green care prescribing and build on existing work that recognises the value of access to quality greenspaces in supporting individual and community resilience. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The Food for Thought programme will work principally but not exclusively in the Thriving Neighbourhood areas of Govan, Gorbals and Priesthill/Househillwood, engaging population groups who experience significant social and health inequalities.
