Summary of the contracting process

Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust commissioned a cervical cancer screening campaign project focused primarily on South Asian women in Bradford, particularly women living in areas of deprivation. The requirement covers insight work for the campaign rather than the wider delivery of screening services. The work is classified as advertising campaign services and is intended to support health and social good. The buying organisation is Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, while the principal delivery focus is Bradford. The selected provider, New Light CIC, is based in York and trades through the New Light Insights service, previously known as Bright Sparks. This opportunity is therefore relevant to organisations specialising in health-related insight, community engagement and campaign development for underserved groups, rather than general clinical screening provision.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to New Light CIC through a below-threshold limited competition. The buyer carried out a three-quote exercise and selected New Light as offering best value. One lot was awarded. The contract was signed on 1 July 2026, runs from 1 July 2026 to 31 October 2026, and is valued at £16,000 excluding VAT, or £19,200 including VAT. The contract is active. The requirement was evaluated through the limited competition route, with the published rationale stating that New Light’s specialism and sole focus on insight work for health and social good made it the best-value option. The outcome indicates a short, focused commission for insight supporting a targeted public health campaign.

This procurement is useful market evidence for specialist insight providers that work with health, social care or public health organisations and can engage communities that experience poorer access or outcomes. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate practical experience of conducting insight work for health or social good, particularly with South Asian communities and people living in deprived areas. Relevant capability may include culturally informed research, trusted community engagement, campaign insight and the ability to turn findings into useful communications activity. The buyer’s use of a small, limited competition and its stated preference for a provider focused specifically on health and social-good insight suggest that specialist relevance matters more than broad advertising capacity. Organisations with a focused evidence base in targeted screening or prevention campaigns would be well placed when comparable work is considered again.
