Bi Borough - Integrated Statutory Advocacy Services Market Engagement Event

New Opportunity - Reshaping Statutory Advocacy Services in the Bi-Borough.

Advocacy is a statutory duty under the Mental Capacity Act, Mental Health Act 2007 and Care Act 2014. The current service provision is due to expire, therefore Westminster City Council (WCC) and the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea (RBKC) intend to undertake a competitive tendering procurement to develop an integrated advocacy service to meet all statutory requirements.

Prior to commencing any formal procurement process the two boroughs are holding a market engagement event on Wednesday 13 March 2019 to engage with suppliers with experience of delivering these types of services.

The purpose of the market engagement is to discuss how best to develop the future model for the statutory advocacy services, namely:

This will be the first of a number of opportunities for key stakeholders including residents and suppliers to input into the redesign of services, delivering improved services and outcomes for customers, residents, carers, families, and communities.
