PQ0575 - Mental Health & Wellbeing Promotion Programme

Description

The Council requires a supplier for the development and delivery of the Mental Health & Wellbeing Promotion Programme 2025.

The Mental Health & Wellbeing Promotion Programme seeks to address mental health literacy by focusing on the mental health and wellbeing experiences and support mechanisms of Birmingham residents, so that more people feel empowered to talk about their mental health, seek out community-based resources, and identify new ways to support their mental health and wellbeing.

The programme will spotlight the written and audio-visual testimonials of approximately 5-10 mental health and wellbeing advocates in Birmingham. The advocates will serve as spokespeople for the programme, sharing community-based resources, as well as their personal mental health and wellbeing experiences and support mechanisms, specifically related to the NHS 5 Ways to Wellbeing themes:
o Connect with other people
o Be physically active
o Learn new skills
o Give to others
o Pay attention to the present moment (mindfulness)

Leveraging these testimonials, as well as those collected from event attendees, the programme will promote a new, comprehensive digital repository/platform, where Birmingham residents can explore community-based resources, discover new ways to support their mental health and wellbeing, and share their own mental health and wellbeing experiences and support mechanisms, uploading personal testimonials and accompanying photographs to the repository/platform.

Target Audience

All citizens of Birmingham with special emphasis on

o Individuals from Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Chinese, Black British, Black Caribbean, and Black African backgrounds, and
o LGBTQ+ communities

because these populations are disproportionally impacted by mental health and wellbeing inequalities, such as direct and indirect discrimination and access to care.

The Mental Health & Wellbeing Promotion Programme will begin on 27 January and end on 30 June 2025 and will be implemented in two distinct phases.

Complete Tender Coverage

Following Brexit, the new official Find a Tender system has been developed by UK Government to detail all public procurement contract opportunities expected to be over £122, 976 for Central Government or £189,330 for the remainder of the public sector e.g. NHS contracts, Local Authority contracts, Housing Association contracts. Publishing requirements for all of the public sector are in place to ensure transparency, fairness and open competition.

All UK public sector opportunities under these values, but over £10,000 for central government or over £25,000 for other public sector organisations, are still required to be published on Contracts Finder. Scotland, Wales and NI also have their own dedicated sites: Public Contracts Scotland, Sell2Wales, eSourcing NI and eTendersNI.

Complete Tenders have centralised and consolidated all of this information into a single, easy to use platform that is updated hourly with all new opportunities.
