## About this tender

THIS IS NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION

### SOFT MARKET TESTING

Leicester City Council are currently considering options for the future design and procurement of the 0-19 Healthy Child Programme (0-19 HCP), with a view to commencing the proposed new service from 1 April 2022. It is anticipated, that tenders for the next commissioning arrangement would be sought in June 2020.

As part of this process the commissioners of this service are keen to capture provider experience, skills, knowledge and concerns at an early point to ensure these can be fully considered throughout the process of designing and commissioning the service.

At a high level, 0-19 Healthy Child Programme will typically include elements of:

â&#128;¢ Public Health Nursing (Health Visiting)

â&#128;¢ Breastfeeding support

â&#128;¢ Public Health Nursing (School Nursing)

â&#128;¢ National Child Measurement Programme and support to achieve and maintain a healthy weight

The vision for the future of 0-19 HCP is still being developed and this soft market testing exercise will feed into the service specification following an internal review.
