The purpose of this RFI is to engage with the market, gather information on potential service delivery models, and understand supplier capability and innovation. The proposed service will support adults experiencing loneliness, social isolation, or reduced community engagement through outreach, befriending, signposting, wellbeing activities, and community-based interventions.
