In plain English

NHS England is commissioning a training and capability-building programme to help women's health staff listen better to patients, recognise and manage pain, and provide culturally competent care. They want a supplier to design and deliver training that can be rolled out across all NHS regions, with materials that NHS England can keep and update themselves.

What the buyer wants

• Design and deliver training on cultural competency and trauma-informed care in women's health, shaped by feedback from staff and patients including Global Majority communities • Build training capacity in every NHS England region so the learning lasts beyond the initial delivery • Create practical guidance and refreshable training materials that integrated care boards can use to commission further work themselves • Ensure the programme is co-designed with the workforce and women's lived experience

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

This is a specialist training and programme design contract, not a straightforward trade service: you will likely be disqualified if you lack demonstrable experience in healthcare training delivery, cultural competency work, or trauma-informed care.

How to bid

This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
