In plain English
NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde wants a provider to run breastfeeding peer support across its area, with support groups, trained volunteers who have lived experience of breastfeeding, and outreach to communities facing inequalities. The estimated value is £165,000, and the notice says the service is open to third-sector (non-government, typically charitable or community) organisations. The support would sit alongside NHS maternity, neonatal, health visiting and Family Nurse Partnership services.
What the buyer wants
• Deliver breastfeeding and infant-feeding support groups and continue the existing community breastfeeding peer support model. • Recruit, train and support peer volunteers with relevant lived experience. • Engage communities experiencing inequalities and work in partnership with NHS GGC, Health and Social Care Partnerships and local maternity, health visiting and family services to provide an integrated offer.
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The notice does not state any specific eligibility rules, certifications or thresholds, but it is written for third-sector organisations with an existing community peer support model and the ability to work in partnership with NHS services, which would likely rule out small businesses without that track record.
