Public Health Primary Care Services

Hampshire County Council invites applications from suitably experienced organisations who wish to be considered for selection to tender for the Public Health Primary Care Services.

This project has 2 different service levels:

1) Long Acting Reversible Contraception (LARC) is a public health service commissioned by the Council, supplementing the standard contraceptive services provided by GP practices under NHS contracts. This service includes the fitting and removal of long-acting contraceptive coils and implants, which are highly effective and cost-efficient methods to prevent unintended pregnancies.

2) The NHS Health Check is a free check-up of a person’s overall health. It can tell whether a person is at higher risk of getting certain health problems, such as: heart disease diabetes kidney disease stroke

During the check-up participants will be given information about how to reduce the risk of these conditions. Patients aged over 65, will also be told about symptoms of dementia to look out for. All mandated public health responsibilities defined in the Health and Social Care Act 2012 are funded under the terms of the Public Health Grant.

The Contract will commence on 1st April 2026 and will be for a period of five years with the option to extend for a further two years.

The contract is open immediately for applications and will be open for a period of 5 years with the option to extend for a further 2 years. Applications can be submitted at any time until 31st March 2031, with further opportunities to apply if contract is extended.

Interested parties should register their interest in the project via the In-Tend website https://in-tendhost.co.uk/hampshire, and complete and submit the tender return document together with any supporting information requested.
