## Summary

NHS England commissioned education and training services to develop and assess training for faith and community leaders on addressing vaccine hesitancy. The project is intended to equip trusted community figures to engage with people concerned about vaccination, support informed decision-making and counter misinformation, particularly among underserved and hesitant populations. It also aims to build community trust and strengthen public health work through evidence-based interventions. The work is for NHS England and concerns training and its impact, rather than the delivery of vaccination services. The procurement was arranged as one lot. The contract title and description indicate a focused public health training project centred on the role of faith and community leaders in responding to vaccine concerns.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to DDM HEALTH LTD. NHS England used a limited competition below the applicable threshold. The award is active and the contract was signed on 9 October 2026. The contract runs from 12 October 2026 to 30 June 2027. Its stated contract value is £74,490 excluding VAT, or £89,388 including VAT. The requirement was procured as a single lot, and the available award information identifies education and training services as the purchase. No award criteria or evaluation weighting are set out in the published process information, so the basis on which competing offers were assessed cannot be described further.

For suppliers considering comparable work for NHS England, this award signals demand for focused training that enables faith and community leaders to discuss vaccination concerns effectively. Relevant strengths include designing training for trusted community voices, understanding vaccine hesitancy and misinformation, and engaging underserved populations. Credible providers would also need to show how they assess training outcomes and connect those results to public health objectives such as informed decision-making and community trust. The selected supplier was a small business, indicating that this focused service was delivered by an SME; the contract is a discrete, time-limited project rather than evidence of a large-scale service requirement. Experience working with community and faith networks, alongside an evidence-based approach to evaluation, would be directly relevant to this buyer's requirement.
