Description

Wigan Council is seeking expressions of interest from sexual healthcare providers who are able to deliver community and specialist sexual and reproductive healthcare services in the borough. A 2017 review of sexual health provision in the Borough informed the development of a new delivery model and procurement of the current provider. We have since worked with our delivery partner to make changes to improve how these services are delivered in the Borough. These changes included things like increasing the amount and type of places support can be accessed, introducing a digital offer, and ensuring that the right support was available for the people who need it the most. During the course of the contract, we have put new models of care in place, driven by the need to reduce face to face contact during the pandemic, which has provided an opportunity to learn from and build on these changes. The current contract has been extended until 31st March 2024, to enable a thorough review of the current provision to be completed.
