Communities First Behaviour Change

This research project will use appropriate evidence-based behaviour change theories to identify factors (e.g. personal, institutional, or systemic) that are barriers or enablers to embedding the CF approach across Northumberland County Council and key partners. The results of this analysis will support NCC and relevant partner organisations to understand and address these barriers and enablers to move further and faster to adopting the Communities First approach. Methods and measurement The Provider will propose their methodology in their tender submission for this work, but broadly it will be expected to include: • Selection and application of appropriate evidence-based behaviour change theory/theories to underpin the analysis. • Identification of the target behaviours that professionals and/or organisations need to adopt in order to implement the Communities First approach (also involve identifying current behaviours that do not support the approach and need to change). This would involve initial scoping work with NCC and key system partners to identify the target behaviours. • Use of appropriate qualitative research methodologies to analyse barriers and enablers for professionals and the wider organisation to delivering Communities First approach, using the evidence based behaviour change theory (see point 1 above). • Include both retrospective evaluation of adoption to date and analysis of anticipated barriers and enablers for wider adoption of the Communities First approach. • Provide relevant recommendations to support successful implementation and maintenance of Communities First approach across NCC and key system partners.

MEN'S MENTAL HEALTH AND WELLBEING COMMUNITY PROGRAMME 2025-2027

Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council wish to commission a Men's Mental Health and Wellbeing Programme for men aged 18 + years that is innovative and responds to feedback from the public consultation. The programme aims to deliver targeted support for men living and/or working in Sandwell in trusted community settings in the six towns providing mental health and wellbeing advice and information, peer support, sport and other hobby-based activities. The Programme will contribute to the priorities of the Council Plan 2024-27 and achieve Public Health's purpose to protect and promote the health of Sandwell. This programme aims to improve mental health for Sandwell men working together with our local communities to make a difference to help change people's lives for the better. Public Consultation from August to September 2024 gave Sandwell men the opportunity to talk about the barriers to accessing mental health support and what mental health provision they need in their communities. This invaluable insight has informed this programme and aims to deliver the 3 key strands - the A B C - we need to go back to basics on men's mental health: Strand A - Awareness and Accessibility- advice and information, training, activities and signposting that help men improve their mental wellbeing, knowing where to find the support they need, seeking support earlier and reducing crisis interventions. Strand B - Behaviours and Identity -provision of information/education sessions that tackle the cultural, religious, media and societal perceptions of the role of men, tackling the stigma of mental health by changing the narrative and get men talking about their mental health and wellbeing. Strand C - Community and Connecting - offering a wide range of community activities encompassing mental health & wellbeing, including physical activity and hobby-based activity, using the 5 ways to wellbeing framework. Boroughwide activities that are inclusive and offer accessible provision to meet cultural, religious, social and language appropriate. The contract term is 2 years from 07 August 2025 to 6th August 2027 with a maximum value of £160,000 (excluding VAT). Further information can be found in the tender documentation. We are seeking to commission a lead organisation to deliver the programme, and for organisations to work together in collaboration to deliver the above strands. We are flexible on the delivery model; however, all three stands must be delivered to meet the required KPIs. This programme must be delivered throughout Sandwell, in all the six towns and reach into communities to engage with and meet the needs of men living and/or working in Sandwell. This programme will be supported by the Council's Public Health Vulnerable Groups Team and will contribute to the Council's Men's Mental Health Campaign and Better Mental Health Strategy to raise awareness and tackle stigma about men's mental health.
