## Summary

The Oldham Metropolitan Borough Council is currently conducting a tender process for the provision of weight loss vouchers, scheduled to conclude on 17th March 2017. This initiative, valued at £48,000, falls under the health services category and aims to offer support to overweight adults aged 18 and above, with potential consideration for younger adults aged 16 to 18. The contract is set to commence on 1st April 2017 and will run until 31st March 2019. The procurement is being executed through an open procedure, allowing for competitive participation.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in health and wellness services, particularly those that can develop and deliver weight loss programmes effectively.
