Description

Birmingham City Council and Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council are interested in assessing the market to establish the options for the delivery of a jointly commissioned all-age Sexual and Reproductive Health Service in Birmingham and Solihull.

The prevention, testing and treatment of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and the provision of a range of contraceptive and reproductive health services are essential elements delivered across Birmingham and Solihull to diverse populations. Accessible from multiple sites with over 7,000 clinic contacts per month, the service also benefits from a strong online presence and partnership working with community providers.

 Increasing prescribing of long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) excluding injections (females aged 15 to 44)
 Reducing conceptions in under 18s
 Increasing the chlamydia detection rate
 Reducing new STIs diagnosis (excluding chlamydia in the under 25s)
