## Summary

The Bracknell Forest Borough Council is currently in the planning stage of procuring a Weight Management and Physical Activity Service, with a focus on the health services industry category. The procurement seeks to acquire a provider to deliver an integrated Tier 2 service aiming to improve health outcomes and reduce health inequalities locally. Located in the South East of England, the council will hold an informal meeting for potential providers, with options on 3rd September in-person and 4th September virtually, both from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm. Queries and attendance confirmations are due by 31st August 2026. This service, operational from June 2027, is positioned as a light-touch procurement under Bracknell’s sub-central government category.

This procurement presents significant growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) within the health sector. Companies specialising in weight management and physical activity services can benefit from this tender by extending their market reach and demonstrating their ability to deliver effective, evidence-based interventions. The procurement method favours providers adept at fostering sustainable behaviour change and reducing health inequalities, making it well-suited for businesses dedicated to impactful health solutions aligned with public health objectives. The substantial budget allocated underlines the potential for successful tenderers to secure a long-term partnership with the council.

## Notice

Bracknell Forest Council is seeking to procure a suitably qualified and experienced provider to deliver an integrated Tier 2 Weight Management and Physical Activity Service, with the objective of improving health outcomes and reducing health inequalities across the local population. The primary purpose of the Tier 2 Weight Management Service is to improve the health and wellbeing of residents living with overweight and obesity by supporting sustainable behaviour change. The service will promote healthy eating, increased physical activity, and other positive lifestyle behaviours to achieve and maintain a healthy weight. It will provide evidence-based early intervention to prevent the development and progression of weight-related conditions, reduce health inequalities, and empower individuals to make long-term changes that improve their overall health and quality of life.

### Planning Information

We would like to invite potential providers to have an informal meeting with us where we can share an overview of our proposed model and outcomes we want to achieve. It will also be an opportunity for us to gather information from you to inform the development of our service specification and answer any questions you might have. 
We have two options available for a meeting to discuss this further:
• Thursday 3 September, 10:00 am–12:00 pm – in person at Bracknell Forest Offices, Time Square.
• Friday 4 September, 10:00 am–12:00 pm – via Microsoft Teams.
