WorkWell - Work and Health Support and Assessment for Birmingham, Solihull and the Black Country

Framework agreement

Description

NHS Black Country ICB has piloted an offer of high quality early-intervention work and health support and assessment offer to its residents through provision of a WorkWell service. The service provides holistic support to help people overcome health-related barriers to employment, and a single, joined-up gateway to other related services within the system. During the last 18 months, the pilot has helped thousands of local people across Black Country to address their work and health needs so that they can start or stay in employment. In January this year the government announced further investment in the WorkWell approach, and as we develop our ambitions for further integration of work and health services across the Black Country we are planning a market engagement event to discuss our plans for the future delivery of this service. The event will help us to shape our preparations to develop local delivery models for the roll out of WorkWell services in Black Country for a period of up to three years from 2026-2029 so that we can meet our population work and health needs. We would invite organisations with a potential interest in the future delivery of WorkWell Services across the Black Country to hear about service developments to date, and help us to shape our future service plans for delivery within Sandwell, Wolverhampton, Walsall and Dudley. We would be particularly keen to hear from suppliers of work and health services with an interest in delivering within the Black Country footprint who would like to participate in discussions with the wider market alongside the ICB, and our partners in local authorities. We expect demand for places will be high, so, to allow as many different providers as possible to be in attendance, would politely request that one representative only attends for each organisation registered. Please see below for registration links, which we kindly ask you to use if you are intending to attend: We are hosting two events as follows : EVENT 1: Wolverhampton and Walsall DATE: Friday 13 March 2026 TIME: 9.30am - 12 noon VENUE: Beechchdale Lifelong Learning Centre, Bloxwich, Walsall REGISTRATION LINK: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1983615162348?aff=oddtdtcreator EVENT 2: Sandwell and Dudley DATE: Friday 13 March 2026 TIME: 2pm - 4pm VENUE: Beacon Centre, Dudley REGISTRATION LINK: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1983615620719?aff=oddtdtcreator
