West Northamptonshire Council is seeking to commission an organisation to deliver a Mental Health and Physical Activity Community Support Service. The service will support adults (aged 18 and over) experiencing mental health challenges to increase their levels of physical activity, improve wellbeing, and reduce social isolation. The project will adopt a community-based, preventative approach, connecting individuals to local physical activity opportunities and providing tailored support, including peer and volunteer-led initiatives. The provider will be responsible for designing and delivering an inclusive and accessible programme that engages priority groups, particularly those experiencing health inequalities. The service will work collaboratively with local partners, including primary care, community organisations, and voluntary sector providers, to establish effective referral pathways and maximise participation. The contract will be for a period of 24 months with a maximum total value of £128,000 (exclusive of VAT). This is a Light Touch procurement conducted in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023. The opportunity is being openly advertised to encourage a wide range of providers, including voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations.
