## Notice

Dear agency colleagues, NHS Greater Manchester ICB is seeking a strategic creative partner to create a new behaviour change stop smoking campaign that will encourage smokers in Greater Manchester to try to quit smoking more often, and more successfully.

The upper affordability limit for this contract is PS140,000 + VAT and this contract is expected to start towards the end of March 2023. If you have any questions or would like to discuss this opportunity, please email gmhscp.makingsmokinghistory@nhs.net by 1pm on Wednesday 8 March 2023.
