Birmingham is a hugely diverse city. Birmingham City Council recognises that different communities and particularly black and minority ethnic (BAME) communities may have specific concerns or issues resulting
from the Covid-19 pandemic coupled with a limited access to the relevant official information and guidance available in community languages. We are keen to support all our local citizens to protect their health
using national Government guidance (see https://www.gov.uk/coronavirus ) and maintain their wellbeing during this challenging period.
Older adults who use digital technology are able to access support and advice on how to look after themselves and their loved ones. Many vulnerable older adults don't use a smart phone or have access to the internet. This impacts on their ability to receive relevant COVID-19 and Test and Trace information. We are seeking bids for services to ensure Birmingham's older adults who don't access digital technology have access to:
o awareness and understanding of COVID-19,
o information how to access to testing
o knowledge of how to respond if they test positive or told they are a contact of a case,
o knowledge of how to reduce risk factors associated with increased risk of severe illness or death from COVID-19.
