Description
This notice is placed as an Early Engagement Notice.
The Commissioner NHS Bristol, South Gloucestershire and North Somerset Clinical Commissioning Group (BNSSG CCG) seeks to engage potential partners to improve our Adult and Older Adult Community Mental Health Services.
Improving the lives of people affected by mental illness is a local priority. The introduction of the national Community Mental Health Framework offers us an important opportunity to review and transform our mental health services.
Our ambition is to provide joined-up and personalised community mental health care - bringing together primary care, community services, mental health, social care and VCSEs. It is our intent to develop our approach with partners across our system - and crucially, with people who have lived experience.
The event will build on our system level strategies that we have been developing together over recent years and form part the discovery phase of this programme.
The first Virtual Event will take place on the 5th November 2020 between 13:00 and 16:00, registration to attend must be made by 12 midday on 3rd November 2020 through the following Eventbrite link (below). Future engagement events will be advertised in due course.
NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW), on behalf BNSSG CCG, are managing the market engagement process and interested organisations use the contact details provided below for any queries.

This notice is an information gathering exercise rather than a call for competition in its own right, and therefore publication or response does not commit the Commissioner or respondents to a future procurement, nor provide any process exemptions or preferential treatment to any parties expressing an interest. Commissioners are looking to establish what interest there might be in providing such a service from suitably qualified, capable and competent organisations.
The Commissioner will not be liable for costs incurred by any interested party in participating in this exercise. Interested parties should note that a response to this notice does not guarantee an automatic invitation to any subsequent formal procurement, which the commissioners will consider in due course.
