## Summary

Wirral Council is seeking to procure a Breastfeeding Support Service, aimed at supporting ante and post-natal women who wish to breastfeed, particularly focusing on those in disadvantaged areas with low breastfeeding rates. This procurement falls under the health and social work services category and is located in Wallasey, United Kingdom. The procurement process is at the tender stage, using an open competition method. Interested parties should note the tender period ending on 21st July 2026, and the enquiry period closing on 3rd July 2026. The estimated contract value is £451,428 GBP, with a contract period set from 1st February 2027 to 31st January 2032.

SMEs and voluntary community sectors are specifically encouraged to compete, as the procurement criteria consider both quality and social value. Engaging in this project can lead to business growth by allowing companies to showcase their expertise in providing supportive health services, thereby enhancing their credentials and expanding their client base through successful delivery of services to a public authority.

## Notice

The service aims to ensure Wirral has a supportive service for ante and post-natal women who wish to breastfeed, which provides an appropriate, evidence-based mix of breastfeeding education, promotion and ante-natal programmes. The service will be targeted to address health inequalities by providing additional breastfeeding support to vulnerable women and those living in the most disadvantaged wards where breastfeeding rates are lowest. This will include (but not be limited to) face-to-face/group/peer support (in Family Hubs and Children's Centre's), telephone support, provision of resources/information and advice, plus a strong social media presence to encourage, motivate, and provide personalised support to help improve breastfeeding rates; this will positively impact the health and wellbeing of mothers and babies locally.
