## About this tender

Social prescribing is a means of enabling patients with social, emotional or practical needs to connect to a range of local, non-clinical services, often provided by the voluntary, statutory and community sector. People can also self-refer. A Wellbeing Co-ordinator (WBC) will work with the person to co-produce solutions and identify opportunities to implement what is important to them.

Social prescribing is identified as one of the 10 High Impact Actions within the GP Five Year Forward View (GPFV 2016). Nationally there is a growing body of evidence that supports social prescribing as a gateway to participation in local community services. A National Social Prescribing Network supports services to share knowledge and best practice, and to support implementation of social prescribing at local and national levels. The network has developed a Social Prescribing Guideline (2017): Making Sense of Social prescribing.

NHS Leeds Clinical Commissioning Group (the "Contracting Authority") is offering a contract to the successful Bidder to provide an overarching Social Prescribing model for Leeds that is tailored to the needs of GP Localities through co-design and coproduction. Social Prescribing will be provided across all GP localities within NHS Leeds Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG). The service will support increased engagement from areas of high deprivation adopting a proportionate universalism approach (Marmot, 2010). There will be an additional focus on those practices in the 20% most deprived neighbourhoods nationally within Leeds, as identified in the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD), with a clear focus on supporting people living in priority neighbourhoods and marginalised communities and vulnerable groups

The Contract intended to be offered to the successful Bidder at the end of this Procurement will be for a duration of 3 years, which is intended to run from 01/09/2019 until 30/08/2022 with the possibility an extension of up to a further 2 years, subject to any restrictions placed nationally by NHS England or the Department of Health.

The maximum annual value is Â£1,537,620 (excluding the outcome payment).
