In line with its Strategic Framework for the Voluntary Sector 2023-2027 the Health Board is now seeking to commence a procurement
exercise for services provided by Third Sector / voluntary and community organisations. The Framework was co-developed and
co-produced with the sector and outlines an ambitious programme of change.
Our ambition is that the Health Board and the Third Sector / voluntary and community organisations will further develop our existing
strong and effective relationships, leading to more services being delivered jointly across both local authority areas, ensuring that
partnership and funding arrangements are effective and efficient.
We would like to invite Third Sector / voluntary and community organisations who may be interested in providing any services fitting into
the lots above to the first in a series of pre-procurement market engagement events to:
Understand the intentions of the market and identify any challenges or barriers
Enable the Health Board to understand how our current service needs can shaped and delivered by the Sector Inform the Health Board of
the current market position and possible options available
