## About this tender

Community Development activity plays an integral role in the delivery of Shropshire's Social Prescribing model and aims to also support the wider frontline health and social care workforce to support residents using a strengths-based and asset focused approach. Shropshire's capacity to deliver Social Prescribing has grown considerably since its inception in 2017 and the Council now wishes to review and consolidate the community development functions.

The Council is seeking a provider, or partnership / consortium of providers, to deliver the Social Prescribing Community Development across the whole of Shropshire Council's area. The successful provider(s) will be responsible for the development of a range of resources such as directories and will support Community Connector networks to enable a wider pool of frontline practitioners and people working within the Voluntary & Community Sector (VCS) to share knowledge and resources that will improve practice. Additionally, relationship building within communities will ensure that where applicable, support groups and volunteers can be connected to infrastructure support which will promote their delivery and longevity. As a consequence of the Covid pandemic, the successful provider(s) will enhance and bolster groups operating at a grass roots level which have formed to support people and communities affected by the pandemic.

The funding available for this contract is fixed at Â£140,000 per annum. The successful provider(s) will enter into a contract with the Council for an initial period of 2 years plus an option to extend by a further 1 year. The contract will be effective from 1st November 2021.

The service is staffed by staff employed by the current provider and applicants should note that it is considered that the Employee 'Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations '2006 ('TUPE') will apply to this contract. Applicants are advised to seek their own legal advice about the practicality of these regulations.
