Advocacy Services Contract - Gateshead Council

Gateshead Council is seeking a single service provider to deliver comprehensive advocacy services to support vulnerable residents. The contract covers statutory advocacy (Care Act, IMCA, RPR, IMHA), NHS complaints advocacy, Rule 1.2 representative advocacy, and general advocacy support. The services will be delivered through one provider to ensure cohesive, coordinated support for individuals who often require multiple types of advocacy during their journey. This integrated approach enables consistent advocacy practices, smooth transitions between service types, and timely support coordination. Prospective suppliers should have experience delivering statutory and non-statutory advocacy services with the capacity to manage diverse client needs and advocacy types within a single framework.
