II.2.4) Description of the procurement

The provision of Mental Health community-based early intervention and prevention support services.

Reach Out Camden (ROC) is Camden’s community-based mental health prevention and early intervention service. It provides a single point of access to timely, flexible, relationship-based support for adults who are struggling with their mental health and whose needs may otherwise escalate to crisis or require secondary mental health care or other statutory services, including Adult Social Care.

Delivered through a Voluntary and Community Sector alliance, ROC offers navigation, one-to-one support, peer support, group activities and community-based support, with a strong lived experience and coproduction approach. The service helps residents access the right support at the right time, strengthens links with neighbourhood, voluntary and statutory services, and supports improved wellbeing, reduced isolation, greater resilience and independence in their communities.

The recommissioned model will place greater emphasis on culturally responsive and autism-affirming support, improving access for communities who face barriers to support or experience poorer outcomes, and includes funding to reach grassroots organisations.

The Council is proposing to follow the Most Suitable Provider process under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR 2023), to award a contract for a period of 60 months, from 1 April 2027 until 31 March 2032 for a total value of £5,429,440.
