NHS NW London ICB requires the provision of five (5) Diabetes Community Clubs (DCCs) spread across North West London.
The aim of the service is to provide peer support for people living with type 2 diabetes by providing a curriculum on diabetes & a platform to meet other people with diabetes. KDS is the digital platform for people to access information about diabetes in NW London. The DCCs offer a similar service for those who are digitally excluded. People meet at a local venue & are guided through KDS content & functionality by a facilitator. However virtual clubs will be considered on a case-by-case basis. DCCs are not a clinical intervention & can be facilitated by people who are not clinically trained as it is not essential for this programme.
The service will cover all 8 boroughs & will be grouped as follows, suppliers responding to this notice must therefore clearly indicate the location of their proposed site:
Lot 1: Kensington & Chelsea, Westminster and Hammersmith & Fulham
Lot 2: Brent & Harrow
Lot 3: Hillingdon
Lot 4: Hounslow
Lot 5: Ealing
Suppliers can submit a response for more than one lot.
Capable providers that meet the below conditions for participation & who can produce the following activities within 5 months may respond to this opportunity:
-Ability to recruit members into the DCC.
-Ability to deliver DCCs over a maximum of an eight-week period utilising the NHS KDS website (11 members & 2 facilitators).
-Ability to produce a sustainability programme.
-Ability to provide a suitable space to host the DCC.
All DCCs must adhere to the following principles:
-Referring service users to a group of 'experts by experience'.
-Reciprocity of peer support & creating a flexible space for people to share their experiences & facilitators should have confidence in leading groups & the ability to manage group dynamics & potentially difficult discussions.
-Creating a safe, nurturing & welcoming environment to share experiences & learn from others.
-Mitigating barriers that prevent people from accessing support & ensuring groups are accessible & inclusive.
-Clubs should be person centred & provide the required support to assist people with development knowledge, skills & confidence to support their diabetes.
-Work in a complementary way to encourage people to access a range of services that best meet their needs.
The ICB is committed to assess the needs of the service users & consider how it needs to secure the needs of the people who use the services, & improve the quality & efficiency in the provision of the services including through the services being provided in an integrated way.
