Description

Derbyshire County Council is looking to secure a provider to deliver the local Healthwatch service in Derbyshire from 1 October 2022 for 5 years with the option of 3 12-month extensions. A Light Touch Procurement Regime (LTR) will be used to evaluate and procure the successful provider. A light touch procurement regime leaves room for councils to design procurement procedures and applies to health care, social care, education, cultural and certain other services. Every English local authority has a duty to make provision for the delivery of Healthwatch statutory activity in their local area. The aim of local Healthwatch is to give citizens and communities a stronger voice to influence and challenge how health and social care services are provided within their locality. There are a range of statutory functions that local Healthwatch must fulfil. There are 151 Local Healthwatch across England, collectively referred to as the Network and a national body, Healthwatch England. Please see tender documents for more information.
