Direct Access Adult Speech & Language Therapy (B&H)
HIV (B&H)

These services have been provided to these communities over a number of years by the local acute services provider; however strategically these best fit with a provider of community services to support on-going service system integration & efficiencies.

The services are currently being delivered by Central London Community Healthcare NHS Trust & Central & North West London NHS Foundation Trust. The term of this contract is 20 months, 1 Aug 2021 - 31 July 2023. Up to this time, the CCG will assess the needs of the service users & consider how it needs to secure the needs of the people who use the services and improve the quality and efficiency in the provision of the services.

NWL CCG is currently of the view that the services described are capable of being provided only by Central London Community Healthcare NHS Trust (CLCH) & Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust (CNWL) as these services were put in place following detailed joint assessment & agreement with & between all NHS provider stakeholders & NHS boroughs involved. Both providers already cover a wide geographic area including outside the NWL health economy. These NHS providers are key stakeholders in the NWL Integrated Care System (ICS) of providers & linked into the shared financial responsibilities for the system control total.
The purpose of this notice is to be transparent about the CCG's intentions & to invite anyone interested in delivering the services described above to contact us by 3 March 2022.

If it is the case that CLCH & CNWL are the only providers capable of delivering the services described, then the CCG will look to award a further contract to the providers for up to 3 years beyond Aug 2023.

In 2022, it is anticipated that NWL CCG will be succeeded by an Integrated Care Board (ICB). Any future opportunity may therefore be in the name of the ICB.
