Description

The service aims to improve sexual and reproductive health outcomes and reduce health inequalities of Devon and Torbay residents. Devon County Council and Torbay Council required a system leader to manage and develop the sexual & reproductive health system across the two local authority areas. The system leader will forge critical partnerships with a range of clinical, voluntary, community and social enterprise sector organisations, commissioning organisations, and our local population to truly improve sexual and reproductive health and wellbeing of people, pathways and outcomes across Devon and Torbay. The integrated Sexual and Reproductive Health Service will be delivered by a single organisation or consortia across the administrative areas of Devon County Council and Torbay Council. Each Authority will hold a separate Contract with the successful Provider.
