If you’d like to attend the session, please complete the form here: https://forms.gle/e7exaWaY6xBtyBNx9
Please note that there will not be opportunities to discuss the specification or tender documents during this session; there will be opportunity to seek clarification on the documents once the tender process is underway.
As a reminder, the service will be aimed at City of London and Hackney residents aged 16+, from Black and other minority ethnic communities with the aim of improving:
· sexual and reproductive health outcomes
· access to information and education about good sexual and reproductive health and wellbeing
· access to, and awareness of, PrEP, STI testing, contraception including LARC, oral combined pill and emergency contraception
· referral pathways between non-clinical and clinical settings
We expect that the successful bidder will work closely with other services commissioned locally to support improved outcomes around sexual and reproductive health and wellbeing, to benefit from collaboration and to avoid duplication.
