## About this tender

This notice is to inform the market of the intention to extend current contracts with Richmond Fellowship and West Sussex MIND for the provision of a Crisis Cafe Service for NHS Sussex Integrated Care Board('the ICB') as follows:

â&#128;¢ Crawley Crisis CafÃ© (Richmond Fellowship): Six months from 01/10/23 fora total value of Â£141,577

â&#128;¢ Worthing Crisis CafÃ© (West Sussex MIND): Six months from 01/10/2023 for a total value of Â£147,013

As a key component of the NHS Long-Term Plan for Mental Health the provision of crisis alternatives and support services, including crisis cafes,are considered an essential alternative to de-escalating or preventing a mental health crisis which would otherwise require attendance at A&E or an in-patient admission.

This direct award is necessary to:

- Allow the Sussex-wide review of all existing Staying Well services (of which the Crisis Cafes are included) and the subsequent findings and supporting recommendations to be agreed by the NHS Sussex Executive Board.
- The completion of the Sussex-wide review to ensure equality and consistency of service delivery across the NHS Sussex footprint.

The Crisis Cafes are a key component of the mental health crisis and urgent care pathway in West Sussex and it is essential that the existing service continues to support both new and existing service users who experience mental health crisis whilst the Sussex-wide review outcomes are evaluated to determine the future commissioning intentions for NHS Sussex Mental Health Staying Well Services.
