## About this tender

North Ayrshire Council (“NAC”) on behalf of North Ayrshire Health and Social Care Partnership (NAHSCP) are looking to notify the market of a future tender opportunity to provide an independent advocacy service. The commissioned service is aligned to the Partnership’s ‘Empowering Inclusion’ Independent Advocacy Strategic Plan (2022 – 2025).

The North Ayrshire Health & Social Care Partnership recognises the importance of advocacy in:

Empowering people to express their own needs and make their own decisions

Enabling people to access information, explore options and make informed decisions

Providing a voice for people who are unable to speak or who do not use speech as a form of communication

### Ensuring a safeguard for vulnerable people

Priority will be given to those individuals for whom the Partnership has a statutory duty to provide access to an independent advocacy service and for whom Scottish Government policy, guidance and standards gives precedence.

## CPV classification

Health and social work services
