Invitation to Quote – Comprehensive Review of Exercise by Referral in Derbyshire

Active Partners Trust on behalf of Active Derbyshire is seeking to work with in individual or organisation to undertake a comprehensive review of the Exercise by Referral service in Derbyshire (not including Derby city) and outline recommendations and options for future service delivery. We are looking to understand what is and isn’t working. The review should focus on the Exercise by Referral service and recognise related and connected schemes such as Life Live Better Derbyshire, Falls Prevention and other localised services. Key areas for consideration include: • Analysis of existing data and insight, the use of the Theseus monitoring system, future reporting requirements and support for the development of a monitoring, evaluation and learning framework. • Mapping of referrals, demographic information and the reach of the service including residents’ experience of the service and who does and doesn’t engage in the pathway. • The referral process into the service, who can refer and the eligibility criteria with consideration of the Physical Activity Consensus Statement. • How referrals are processed including the Live Life Better Derbyshire Hub and how residents are or could be triaged. • An understanding of the value and limitations of a 12-week service, the prescribed number of activities available and the variation in personalised support that is needed. • Wider physical activity opportunities and additional support available or needed to sustain levels of physical activity. • Perspectives on services and activities being free to access or charged at a full or subsidised rate. • Evidence of individual behaviour change and the role of physical activity in the management of long-term conditions and pain. • The experience of the residents being referred, the health care professionals making referrals and the people who support residents in physical activity who have been referred. • The qualification requirements and workforce need for future delivery of the service. • Learning and good practice from other areas across the United Kingdom. Quotations should be submitted by 11.59pm on Thursday 11 July 2024, via email to info@activepartnerstrust.org.uk Submitted quotes should include the following: • CV and/or covering letter which summarises the skills and experience relevant to the scope and assessment criteria. • A clear proposal for how the work would be carried out. • A schedule of costs and services. • Any further information which may support the proposal.
