Published
Buyer
Description
This is a procurement carried out under the Provider Selection Regime 2023 - Route 3 Competitive Procedure On 4 October 2023, the government published Stopping the start: our new plan to create a smokefree generation, which considered the recommendations detailed in the independent review and sets out the proposed actions the government will take to tackle smoking and youth vaping. To help reach the Smokefree 2030 ambition, the government is committing additional funding of £70 million per year for local authority led stop smoking services and support. This will more than double the current local authority spend on stop smoking services of £68 million per year to a total of £138 million and meets the independent review recommendation for increased investment. In total the funding will aim to support around 360,000 people to quit with 198,000 successful quits (measured as four-week quits). From this funding, the Council is seeking to reduce the amount of people smoking through increasing engagement with smokers from priority groups (identified by The Council’s Tobacco Control Needs Assessment), in line with the conditions of the Local Stop Smoking Services and Support Grant 2024-2025. List of priority groups this service will target: • Routine and manual workers • Long term sick and unemployed • Social housing tenants • People in the community with mental health issues • Ethnic minority groups • LGBTQ+ community • People experiencing homelessness • People supported by the Criminal Justice System • Smokers in substance misuse treatment services • Young people who smoke and vape (aged 12-25) The overall aim of the Service is to increase the number of people quitting smoking in Kent by engaging and motivating individuals from priority groups to stop smoking.
