Night Light Cafes provide safe places for people to go when struggling with their mental health and wellbeing to receive non-clinical, out-of-hours support, offering an alternative to statutory emergency services. The Commissioner is considering commissioning intentions including moving from the current provision of a management oversight provider and separate contracts for sub-sites to a Lead Provider Model with the selected provider sub-contracting the sub sites.
This notice intends to identify providers who would like to express an interest in providing the above service and to invite all interested parties to attend a Market Engagement Event with NHS Lincolnshire ICB. The contract value and duration information will be covered as part of the market engagement presentation pack.
