The contract, with a value of approximately £10,479,900 over a five-year period, was formally awarded on 9 April 2025, with the contract commencing on 1 September 2024 for an initial three years with the option to extend for an additional two years. This procurement falls under health services and was conducted as a direct award process under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, bypassing the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.

Organisations capable of providing both face-to-face and online counselling, as well as interactive webinars, would be well-suited to compete. The emphasis on reducing health inequalities in Gloucestershire aligns with wider NHS objectives, offering businesses the chance to contribute to meaningful community health improvements while potentially expanding their service offerings in the public sector.
