    Brief

    This procurement opportunity involves establishing and managing a buddy support scheme across HMP Southwest facilities. The service comprises two key components: (1) Training and Continuous Professional Development - the healthcare provider will be responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining training programmes for buddy scheme participants across the prison estate; (2) Day-to-Day Management - HMPPS and the health and social care team will share responsibility for the operational management and oversight of the buddy scheme. Suppliers should be prepared to develop training curricula, deliver professional development sessions, support programme rollout, and collaborate with HMPPS and health and social care partners on scheme operations and performance monitoring.
