## About this tender

The Wave 4 Suicide Prevention Transformation Programme in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough runs between 2021 and 2024. It consists of the following 4 workstreams, delivered through a multiagency approach between the local authority and third sector partners:

- Enhanced multi-agency Real-Time Suicide Surveillance (RTSS)
- System wide training in Safetool safety planning and risk assessment
- Communications and STOP Suicide Campaigns
- Understanding and addressing self-harm in children and young people

We are seeking to employ an external evaluation service to evaluate the impact of the Wave 4 suicide transformation project in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. This evaluation needs to consider the impact of each workstream as well as the overall impact of the programme and its multiagency approach. The objective of this evaluation is to inform our future suicide prevention work by determining the effectiveness of our chosen proposals in reducing suicide and improving the awareness of both healthcare professionals and the wider community in suicide prevention skills. In addition, learning can be shared with partners across the East of England region and wider to inform a wider suicide prevention approach nationally. In contrast, evaluation can also reveal areas of improvement that should be considered in future funding proposals.

Evaluation should be both qualitative and quantitative in nature, but there is no expectation of specific evaluation methods from the perspective of the Wave 4 steering group. We are keen to hear potential providers' perspectives on the most appropriate forms of evaluation, and we particularly encourage innovation in your approach. It is important to not only capture the immediate outcomes of our work, but also the long-term impacts that we are hoping to achieve, including behaviour change and greater suicide awareness in both professionals and members of the community.

Please note that this is a one year contract initially for up to Â£12,000, with an optional extension for 16 more months worth up to Â£24,000, depending on performance of the contract and external funding.
