Description

Bath and North East Somerset (B&NES) Council has a statutory duty to provide a local Healthwatch to the people living in B&NES. B&NES Council also have a broader leadership role in health and care, promoting wellbeing and tackling health inequalities through their public health function and integration with health colleagues in Bath and North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire (BSW) Integrated Care Board (ICB). Healthwatch contributes to the bigger picture by supporting local authorities and their partners to achieve health and care strategic aims and ambitions by bringing people's voices into the heart of commissioning and delivery. Local Healthwatch finds out what people like and could be improved about services and shares these views with those who commission and provide health and care and have the power to make change happen. Healthwatch also helps people find the information they need about services in their area. In addition to the statutory Healthwatch responsibilities, this tender also includes specific requirement for the provider to support and enable people receiving care, or carers of people receiving care, to contribute to and coproduce strategic commissioning plans and/or services.

The contract will run from 1st April 2024 for 3 years, with the potential for an additional up to 12 months' extension.
