Provision of Social Prescribers

Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust has announced an intention to award a contract under the Provider Selection Regime for the provision of social prescribers in the borough of Lambeth, London. The procurement falls under the health and social work services category, with a specific focus on service delivery in the UKI region. The procurement stage is currently at the award phase, with the contract award status being active.

Notably, this contract follows a limited procurement method, meaning there was no prior publication of a call for competition due to technical reasons. The deadline for provider representations is set for 13th October 2025, following the commencement of the standstill period after the publication date of this notice on 30th September 2025. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in health and social work services, particularly those with expertise in social prescribing.

It offers the chance to deliver critical healthcare services in Lambeth, aligning with strategic objectives and ensuring continuity of care. The process is ideal for entities capable of demonstrating service quality, provider capability, and value for money, as well as those committed to safe and efficient service delivery. With Age UK selected as the supplier, larger organisations with similar operational capabilities may find this type of tender beneficial for expansion and establishing a foothold in specialised healthcare service provision.
