    "description": "Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council wish to commission a Men\u0027s Mental Health and Wellbeing Programme for men aged 18 + years that is innovative and responds to feedback from the public consultation. The programme aims to deliver targeted support for men living and/or working in Sandwell in trusted community settings in the six towns providing mental health and wellbeing advice and information, peer support, sport and other hobby-based activities. The Programme will contribute to the priorities of the Council Plan 2024-27 and achieve Public Health\u0027s purpose to protect and promote the health of Sandwell.  This programme aims to improve mental health for Sandwell men working together with our local communities to make a difference to help change people\u0027s lives for the better.\nPublic Consultation from August to September 2024 gave Sandwell men the opportunity to talk about the barriers to accessing mental health support and what mental health provision they need in their communities.  This invaluable insight has informed this programme and aims to deliver the 3 key strands - the A B C - we need to go back to basics on men\u0027s mental health:\nStrand A - Awareness and Accessibility- advice and information, training, activities and signposting that help men improve their mental wellbeing, knowing where to find the support they need, seeking support earlier and reducing crisis interventions.\nStrand  B - Behaviours and Identity -provision of information/education sessions that tackle the cultural, religious, media and societal perceptions of the role of men, tackling the stigma of mental health by changing the narrative and get men talking about their mental health and wellbeing.\nStrand C - Community and Connecting - offering a wide range of community activities encompassing mental health \u0026 wellbeing, including physical activity and hobby-based activity, using the 5 ways to wellbeing framework. Boroughwide activities that are inclusive and offer accessible provision to meet cultural, religious, social and language appropriate.\nThe contract term is 2 years from 07 August 2025 to 6th August 2027 with a maximum value of \u00a3160,000 (excluding VAT). Further information can be found in the tender documentation.\nWe are seeking to commission a lead organisation to deliver the programme, and for organisations to work together in collaboration to deliver the above strands.  We are flexible on the delivery model; however, all three stands must be delivered to meet the required KPIs. This programme must be delivered throughout Sandwell, in all the six towns and reach into communities to engage with and meet the needs of men living and/or working in Sandwell.\nThis programme will be supported by the Council\u0027s Public Health Vulnerable Groups Team and will contribute to the Council\u0027s Men\u0027s Mental Health Campaign and Better Mental Health Strategy to raise awareness and tackle stigma about men\u0027s mental health.\nMarket engagements was conducted for this requirement, a PIN notice was not published on Find a Tender for the engagement as it was conducted prior to the Procurement Act 2023 coming in affect. The slides which were shared at the market engagement event are available within the tender pack.\nParticipants should note that this Procurement Process is  below the Procurement Act 2023 threshold, for the supply of goods, services or works to a sub-central government authority and therefore is subject to Part 6 below threshold contracts sections 84 to 88 of the Procurement Act 2023\nThe Tender Document(s) will be made available to suppliers who Express Interest on the Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council Tendering Portal.
