Market Engagement Community-based mental health and wellbeing services

Tender description

Over the past five years, demand for urgent and emergency mental health support in Norfolk and Suffolk has grown and it is continuing to grow. To help people stay well and avoid crisis admissions, both areas have developed community-based mental health and wellbeing services such as crisis support and wellbeing hubs, telephone support and short stay recovery houses. These services provide safe spaces and support for people aged 18+ years who may be struggling. The Commissioner is in the process of reviewing our approach to commissioning this community-based mental health provision and the ICB want to have a consistent and effective approach across both counties through the new Norfolk and Suffolk ICB, from April 2027.
