The LCO is envisaged to operate through a 'neighbourhood model', with emphasis upon: local population health & prevention of ill health; connecting to community assets & building upon people's strengths and self-management skills; and targeted care support people's needs particularly as needs change and become more complex.

To do this they will need to deliver sustainable, high quality, safe and affordable prevention, primary, community, secondary health & social care services, through a blend of direct and sub-contracted provision.

Commissioners seek responses from interested Providers who wish to deliver the Services as set out in the Prospectus: i.e. a LCO for the population of Manchester with the aim of bringing together a range of health, social care and public health services to be delivered in the community.
