0-19 Healthy Child Programme Services

The London Borough of Merton has awarded a contract for the provision of 0-19 Healthy Child Programme Services, notably Health Visiting and School Nursing services, to Central London Community Healthcare. The contract, valued at £20,721,172, involves delivering comprehensive health services for children and young people aged 0-19 in Merton, including specialist support services. The award has been completed following a limited procurement method under the Provider Selection Regime, bypassing the need for a prior competitive call.

The contract was formally signed on 7th April 2025, and services are expected to cater to families resident in Merton and educational facilities including maintained schools, academies, and other youth settings in the UKI63 region. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses operating in health and social work services, especially those with a focus on community healthcare and public health. Companies skilled in delivering innovative health solutions, integrating services, enhancing service sustainability, and providing value through cost-efficient measures are well-suited to compete for similar contracts.

Organisations that can improve access to healthcare, address inequalities, and offer flexible support tailored to specific community needs will find this procurement approach aligned with their business strengths and growth strategies.
