In plain English
The East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust wants a supplier to co-design and deliver neurodiversity awareness training for its staff, under a framework agreement lasting four years with an estimated value of £1 million. The aim is to help managers and colleagues support neurodivergent staff and make the workplace more inclusive, with a planned start date of 1 January 2027.
What the buyer wants
• Co-design and deliver a suite of neurodiversity training: manager training, a managers toolkit, training for specialist functions, e-learning, neurodiversity champions training and train-the-trainer courses. • Make sure the training reflects best practice, current legislation, NHS workforce needs and a neuro-affirmative approach. • Provide accessible learning resources that help the Trust meet its Equality Act 2010 duties and put reasonable adjustments into practice.
Requirements
What could rule a small business out (our reading of the notice, written with AI): The notice does not set out specific financial, insurance or certification thresholds, but it asks for a "suitably qualified and experienced" supplier able to design and deliver a broad, multi-part training suite across a four-year framework worth around £1 million, which will likely rule out very small businesses without a track record of large-scale training delivery.

How to bid
This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
