## Summary

The Westmorland and Furness Council has awarded contracts under the Dynamic Purchasing System Invitation to tender for the provision of Community Pharmacy Public Health Services. The awarded contract, valued at £631,213, will run from 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2027 and involves Community Pharmacies in Westmorland and Furness (including Barrow, Eden, and South Lakeland). The procurement stage is completed, with the process being an open procedure. The framework includes the provision of Emergency Hormonal Contraception, Stop Smoking Support, and Flu Vaccinations via a Staff Voucher Scheme. Key suppliers include Well Pharmacy, Coward Pharmacy Limited, Thomas Bell Chemist Ltd, and others, with the Council acting as the contracting authority.

This tender offers substantial growth opportunities for Community Pharmacies, particularly SMEs, to expand their services and engage in public health initiatives. Suppliers can benefit from stable long-term work while contributing to the health outcomes of the local population. Businesses with competency in providing emergency contraception, smoking cessation support, and vaccination services are particularly well-suited to compete and thrive under this framework. As the Council may contract additional qualified providers during the framework's life, ongoing opportunities for service expansion are anticipated.
