    Brief

    Velindre University NHS Trust seeks to continue engagement with their incumbent PR supplier for ongoing communications and strategic consultancy services. The Trust is managing multiple sensitive reputational matters requiring expert guidance on stakeholder engagement, media relations, and communications strategy. The successful supplier will provide specialist support across confidential and complex issues, with particular focus on supporting the Trust's transition to the new Velindre Cancer Centre scheduled for spring 2027. This is a continuation of existing services rather than a new engagement. The successful supplier must demonstrate ability to: manage sensitive and confidential communications; provide rapid response to emerging issues; maintain consistent messaging across multiple stakeholder groups; understand NHS Wales context and governance; and coordinate communications during major organisational change. This procurement is being managed by NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership on behalf of Velindre University NHS Trust.
