Hampshire Country Council's Public Health team is seeking to reprocure the Mens Targeted Weight Loss Programme. The aim of the service is to provide effective interventions to enable adults to achieve meaningful and sustainable weight loss to benefit their current and future health. 

The Public Health team is looking for a provider who will deliver this programme safely and to a high-quality standard. 

Deliver a standardised football-based weight intervention to enable eligible adult men in Hampshire who are overweight or obese to be supported to lose a minimum of 5% of their weight in a programme of at least twelve weeks in duration. 

• Provide multi-component weight management programmes that includes a focus on the following elements: Dietary intake, physical activity and behaviour change. An intervention that seeks to increase the level of physical activity suitable for the target participants ability. 

• Be an intervention targeted specifically at men, particularly those that are residents from the lower quartile of indices of deprivation in Hampshire. 

• The intervention must be delivered at a minimum of ten locations across Hampshire so that each intervention locality is accessible by the eligible residents in each of the Borough/District Councils in Hampshire with at least one intervention provided in those ten locations and ideally an intervention provided in each of the eleven Borough/District Council localities. 

• Each intervention locality will offer a minimum 60 places for participants. Within this there should be some flexibility 

• The provider will be responsible for compliance with the Key Performance Indicators as agreed with the commissioner 

• The service will be accessed either through: 

o Self-referral (in response to participant recruitment campaigns, which would be delivered by the Provider with prior approval from the service Commissioner, for example) and 

o Primary Care clinician referral at launch, via an appropriate clinician, other professional
