Tower Hamlets Council is preparing to re-commission its borough-wide adult (18+) drug and alcohol treatment and recovery service, currently branded "Reset", for three years from 25 October 2027 to 24 October 2030, worth around £37m. This notice is not the tender itself: it advertises a market engagement event at the Town Hall on 5 October 2026 and invites small local providers to submit a prospectus so they can be considered as sub-contractors to the main provider.
Good fit for: Drug and alcohol treatment, recovery and support organisations — large providers as lead bidder, small local ones as sub-contractors.
Watch out: Contract value of about £37m in a single lot — far too large for most small firms to lead on; You must register interest in the event via Eventbrite by midday on Friday 2 October; Full details and the prospectus requirements are only on the London Tenders Portal (opportunity DN785754); Will be awarded under the Provider Selection Regime rules for health and care services

What the buyer says
London Borough of Tower Hamlets is recommissioning a borough-wide, world-class adult substance misuse treatment system, aligned with the Combatting Drugs Partnership Strategy (2024–2027). Currently Tower Hamlets commission and deliver a range of substance misuse treatment and recovery services for residents aged 18 plus, collectively branded as “Reset”. These services meet the needs of Tower Hamlet’s residents facing the challenges of substance misuse by equipping individuals with the tools to move towards a life where drugs and alcohol do not negatively impact on themselves, their families, and/or the wider community. The borough’s substance misuse treatment and recovery services have undergone significant change over the last six years. The “Reset” service model was launched in October 2019, followed by a challenging period of mobilisation during the pandemic years. More recently the borough has seen a substantial increase in investment, through time-limited grant programmes in support of the national drug strategy, From Harm to Hope. This has resulted in a series of iterative, short-term investments to improve the quality and outcomes of services, with the aim of increasing the numbers of individuals accessing and sustaining treatment. Following a period of review the borough is seeking to re-procure these services; providing an opportunity to build on the successes of the last few years and refresh our model within the context of a more sustainable funding framework. This notice is used to: 1. Advertise a market engagement event taking place at the Town Hall on 5th October 2026 2. Collect information from small local suppliers who may wish to work as a sub-contractor to the main contractor in delivery of the required services 1. Market Engagement Event Please regist…
