About this contract

This is a joint commission by Camden and Islington councils for training services in both boroughs. The procurement is led by Islington Council. Promoting positive mental health and well-being is a strategic priority for both Camden and Islington. For the past four years the councils have jointly commissioned the provision of mental health awareness and suicide prevention awareness training services. This training supports the capacity and capability of communities and key public facing services: to help themselves and others when experiencing mental health distress, to access support at an early stage, and to tackle the stigma and discrimination around mental health and ill-health. It also supports one of our strategic suicide prevention priorities across Camden and Islington.The service will deliver a comprehensive range of high quality, evidence-based mental health awareness training courses. This will include the licensed and internationally recognised Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) and Youth Mental Health First Aid (YMHFA) courses, suicide prevention training and other evidence based mental health awareness training.
