Description

Derbyshire Community Health Services NHS Foundation Trust (DCHS) delivers sexual health services in Derbyshire County and Derby City and is seeking bids for the provision of a digital sexual health promotion (SHP) service. Our SHP team provides a wide range of specialist services and interventions designed to improve the sexual health and wellbeing of our populations of Derbyshire. Whilst sexual ill health can affect us all, it is concentrated in many vulnerable and marginalised communities, which requires our SHP team to work closely to develop and deliver evidence based interventions aimed at addressing these sexual health inequalities.
We are looking for a provider to develop digital innovations to increase the opportunities for hard to reach communities in Derbyshire County to be able to access and engage with our service. The aim of this outreach is to increase visibility and knowledge of our service by providing information, support and referrals into our clinical services, through digital platforms.
The service will be procured for an initial period of 2 years with potential to increase by a further 7 years on an annual basis, from 1 April 2019.
