Summary, notice description and lot information
The NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board (NENC ICB) is in the planning stage of a procurement process, conducting a Request for Information (RFI) exercise to explore the market capability for delivering counselling services addressing sexual abuse, sexualised behaviours, and bereavement for children and young people within the Northumberland and North Tyneside areas. This public procurement, titled "NENC002 - Sexual abuse, sexualised behaviours and bereavement counselling services - Request for Information", falls under the industry category of guidance and counselling services. Organisations interested in this opportunity should submit their RFI responses by 12 noon on 14 July 2025, utilising the electronic tendering tool associated with the exercise.
Future tender opportunities will be published, with additional notices expected around 1 October 2025. This procurement exercise offers substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) specialising in counselling and support services. The projected contract period will commence on 1 June 2026 and continue until 31 May 2031.
The provision of these counselling services is aligned with a light touch procurement regime, allowing businesses with a focus in the specified sectors to contribute to impactful community support. Early engagement through the RFI can position businesses advantageously for any subsequent tender invitations, facilitating growth through public sector collaboration.
