Description

This notice is placed as a Prior Information Notice (PIN) to facilitate engagement with potential providers and relates only to a pre-procurement market questionnaire. NHS England Health & Justice South East (the Commissioner) seeks to re-commission Lived Experience Services across the South East Health and Justice secure estate. The contribution of service users who have first-hand experience of using the healthcare services within the secure establishments is essential to the delivery of effective services and informing the commissioning process. The Commissioner is committed to listening and acting upon the voice of the service user in the design, delivery and ongoing performance of healthcare services. The service will be expected to consult / engage with service users on the full range of healthcare services delivered within the establishments via delivery of both on-site and remote service user engagement / participation activities. The service must hold independence from other (e.g. healthcare) service provision in the specified secure settings in order to have the ability to act as an independent and critical friend. It is anticipated that the contracts will commence on 1st April 2025. The contract term is yet to be confirmed.
