The Service will create strong partnerships with the existing healthy lifestyle provider and community groups and organisations who already work and have relationships with these individuals. This will allow the ability to assess need and motivation, and the flexibility to take stop smoking services into communities and settings and deliver them in a bespoke manner based on identified needs and preferences. Service users' and stakeholders' experiences of the Service are paramount to its successful implementation and its role as a system enabler. The Provider will proactively gather feedback and use it to adapt and improve. All interventions will comply with relevant guidance, quality standards and technology appraisals published by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellent and other professional bodies, as well as relevant national and local policy guidance (including updates and replacements). Summary List of the Scope Requirements is as follows: The Service will provide accessible information and support services for those aged 12 and over, focusing on supporting people to stop smoking.
