Description
This notice is to inform the market of the intention to directly award contracts to Richmond Fellowship and West Sussex MIND for the provision of a Crisis Cafe Service for NHS Sussex Integrated Care Board ('the ICB') as follows:
⢠Crawley Crisis Café (Richmond Fellowship):
Six months from 01/04/23 for a total value of £147,013
⢠Worthing Crisis Café (West Sussex MIND):
Nine months from 01/01/23 for a total value of £212,366
(based on 2021-22 figures)
A key component of the NHS Long-Term Plan for Mental Health the provision of crisis alternatives and support services, including crisis cafes, are considered an essential alternative to de-escalating or preventing a mental health crisis which would otherwise require attendance at A&E or an in-patient admission.
This direct award is necessary to:
i) Enable a full evaluation of the current service provision to take place and decide whether to reprocure or terminate the service.
ii) Allow the Sussex-wide review of all existing staying well services (of which this is part) to conclude, so as to ensure equality and consistency across the NHS Sussex footprint.
It is essential that the existing service continues to support both new and existing service users whilst a full evaluation locally and Sussex-wide concludes and a new procurement process takes place. The service is a key component of the crisis and urgent care pathway in West Sussex. If the service did not continue in the interim there would be a significant negative impact on our local population who experience mental health crisis, their families and add to the demand and pressures on other parts of healthcare services including both A&E and MH inpatient services.
