Chichester District Council - Family Wellbeing Project

Chichester Wellbeing is looking to commission sustainable activities that support behaviour change in those with increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease and cancer, as part of the countywide Prevention and Wellbeing Programme. These activities will be evaluated as part of the wellbeing programme.

Chichester Wellbeing works to tackle the wider determinants of health; tackling factors which affect health and wellbeing and health inequalities. The Wellbeing Programme has been commissioned by the Department of Public Health at West Sussex County Council (WSCC), to be delivered by each of the district and borough councils in West Sussex. The Wellbeing Programme in each local authority is designed to address health inequalities and support residents to reduce their risk factors for heart disease, stroke, diabetes type 2 and preventable cancers through lifestyle changes, by the coordination and commissioning of local services that meet the locally recognised health and wellbeing priorities.

A countywide coordinated approach to the programme is being delivered through a network of West Sussex wellbeing programmes, with each district and borough council working to a common framework for delivery of the objectives outlined above.

The Wellbeing programme in each district and borough has been tailored to reflect local demographics, need and capacity, but shares the common purpose of providing a high profile centre of local prevention and wellbeing activity, increasing the ease of access to services needed by the local population.

Period of Project: 1st April 2016 to 31st March 2017 (with a potential for +1 +1 year extension(s) subject to public health funding and satisfactory monitoring returns.

Budget: £25,000 - £30,000 per annum (at this time we do not have confirmation of any funding for this project and therefore we reserve the right to not award any contract should funding not become available) (the final value of the contract is dependent on the funding received by the council from WSCC public health)

We appreciate the short tender period but this is due to a delay in funding award, which has still not been received. Should we obtain future funding we do not wish to have a break in the current service.
