Tender: Qualitative Lived-Experience Needs Assessment of Gambling-Related Harms in Cambridgeshire

About

A commissioning organisation is seeking a supplier for a qualitative lived-experience needs assessment of gambling-related harms in Cambridgeshire.

The successful provider must design and deliver a robust qualitative assessment using interviews, focus groups and stakeholder engagement; engage people with lived experience, affected family members, community organisations, service providers and other stakeholders; apply an inclusive, trauma-informed and culturally competent approach with appropriate safeguarding and data protection arrangements; analyse findings and develop practical recommendations for prevention, service improvement and future commissioning; and produce a final report, executive summary, presentation slides and an accessible summary for service users within a 1.5-month contract term.
