Community Sexual Health - Early Intervention Service

Tender description

The London Borough of Bromley is inviting tenders from suitably experienced and skilled organisations for the provision of a new Community Sexual Health Early Intervention Service. The service will comprise the following elements (service areas) that target specific ‘at risk’ groups within the local population in Bromley: 1. Health Promotion and Outreach Services 2. Online Chlamydia Screening and STI/HIV Home-Sampling Service 3. Specialist prevention for the Bromley LGBTQ population 4. Community HIV Clinical Nurse Specialist Service 5. Community Contraception and Reproductive Health Service Bromley’s vision is that the service will operate as a single entity with one organisation managing it as Lead Organisation responsible for information sharing and performance monitoring for all elements. They must demonstrate significant reach into community and voluntary sector services operating in the borough and will need to work collaboratively with other providers to fulfil the service requirements. Bids may be from existing consortia or from a group of organisations where one acts as Lead Organisation; the bidding entity, however formed, must be able to provide all of the elements. Organisations that cannot bid as Lead Organisation but could provide one or more element may be directed to the Lead Organisation if and when a contract is awarded to be considered as a consortium member or sub-contractor.
