Healthy Lifestyle Service

Hull City Council is seeking to invest in a Healthy Lifestyles service which will add value to, and complement, other services in the City to improve the health of the population. We are seeking experienced providers who are able to work in an integrated way. This service will contribute to the delivery of Hull's City Plan, specifically the Prevention and Early Intervention priority which aims to provide people most in need with the right support, when they most need it. It also supports the delivery of Hull's Health and Well Being Board and Early Help Strategies. The investment will be an integral part of the City's strategy to support Hull's residents (young and old) to lead a healthy lifestyle and will form part of Hull City Council's Early Help and Interventions Framework (see www.hullcc.gov.uk). The service will work across the life course and aim to engage families and individuals at the earliest possible opportunity to improve the health of the population. The anticipated service commencement date is 1 October 2015 The Service has been divided into the following work packages (Lots): Lot 1. Tier 2 Health Trainers Service. Lot 2. Tier 2 Family Weight Management Service . The Health Trainers Service contract value will be a maximum of £300,000 per annum. The Tier 2 Family Weight Management Service is a new service; the maximum available budget for this service will be £100,000 per annum. The total contract value per annul is £400,000. Hull City Council proposes to enter into one or more Contract(s) for a period of 3 years with the successful Tenderer (Service Provider), with an option to extend for a period or periods of up to a maximum of 12 months. Such extension will be at the discretion of the Council and subject to satisfactory performance. The Authority envisages that the staff working on the current service shall transfer to the Service Provider or its subcontractors, under the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (SI 2006/246) (TUPE) along with the Services. Under this contract the Supplier will be required to actively contribute to the achievement of social objectives. These include: skills development; employment and training opportunities within the locality of where the contract will be delivered; and other added value initiatives throughout the supply chain to support community programmes promoted by the council. Accordingly contract performance conditions may relate in particular to secondary considerations.
