Mental Health Prevention Services
Overview
Summary, notice description and lot information
Liverpool City Council is seeking to procure an experienced organisation to deliver Mental Health Prevention Services, with an emphasis on creating efficient, effective, and strength-based reablement approaches. This procurement process, currently in the tender stage, focuses on community health services and is being conducted via an open procedure. The tender, valued at approximately £1.69 million, will see the contract commence in April 2026 and run until March 2029.
Interested parties must submit their bids by 30th September 2025. The services will be delivered in England, United Kingdom, and aim to support adults with mild to moderate mental health issues, thereby alleviating pressure on statutory services. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), particularly those experienced in community health services and mental health support.
Organisations with a strong foundation in offering neighbourhood-based services, peer mentoring, or those capable of developing scalable interventions, will find this opportunity particularly aligned with their expertise. The procurement process encourages collaboration with delivery partners to provide an equitable and comprehensive mental health prevention service, potentially opening up pathways for businesses to leverage their strengths in innovative service delivery models.
Liverpool City Council is looking to commission a qualified and experienced organisation to deliver a range of Preventative Mental Health Services. We're excited to be transforming our approach in this area, with a focus on strength-based reablement, improved efficiency and effectiveness, and better outcomes for service users, while also helping to reduce demand on statutory services. The service will support adults who experience mild to moderate symptoms attributed to poor mental health or common mental health problems (CMHP) with the aim of preventing reducing and delaying the need for adults to access acute / crisis mental health services.
Key features of the Lead Provider Mental Health Prevention Services are specified to include:
- Single Point of Referral / No Wrong Door.
- Neighbourhood-based services.
- Scaled up interventions 'that work' e.g. Peer Mentoring that can flex over the course of the contract.
- Scaled up volunteering, education and training opportunities and pathways out of services.
- Menu of interventions, autonomy, choice and control to service users based on individual assessment.
- Monitoring and Outcome evaluation improvement.
The aim is for the lead provider to work with delivery partners to deliver a streamlined, responsive and equitable mental health prevention service, which will develop and maintain a comprehensive timetable or menu of interventions, incorporating a broad range of preventative services, strongly based on co-production with service users.
