Health and social work services

Tender description

Essex County Council (ECC) is considering options for a countywide community well-being and resilience service, tackling health inequalities at its heart. This service will deliver traditional health improvement programmes, including but not limited to, smoking cessation, weight management and NHS health checks. This approach represents a move from traditional service delivery to community owned support options where appropriate. ECC invites prospective providers to attend a market engagement event on Monday 20 April 2020. To attend the market engagement event please email Lorna.baker@essex.gov.uk by Thursday 2 April 2020. This service will deliver traditional health improvement programmes, including but not limited to, smoking cessation, weight management and NHS health checks. This approach represents a move from traditional service delivery to community owned support options where appropriate. ECC is seeking to collaborate with traditional and non-traditional actors around digital first, shared social missions of purpose to drive behaviour change that delivers real outcomes with people at pace and scale. ECC aspires to achieve a social movement to improve the health and well-being of our residents and expect providers to aspire to a similar vision.
