Since services fall within CPV Code 85323000-9 (community health services delivered to individuals) the procurement will be carried out under the Provider Selection Regime under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. Reading Borough Council previously published a preliminary market engagement notice setting out its intention to explore procurement of a joint Integrated 0-19 (0-25 SEND) Public Health Nursing Service arrangement with neighbouring authorities. The market engagement undertaken at that time sought views on the proposed service model and delivery arrangements for a collaborative commissioning approach. 0-19 (up to 25 for Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) Public Health Nursing Services - Find a Tender Following publication of that notice, changes in the local government landscape, including ongoing considerations relating to Local Government Reorganisation, have resulted in the Council reviewing its future commissioning options. As a consequence, Reading Borough Council is now considering the potential for a Reading-only procurement and is seeking feedback from the market to understand the level of provider interest, capacity and capability to deliver a standalone service focused on the Reading population. This notice is issued solely to inform the market of the Council's revised commissioning intentions and to seek expressions of interest from organisations that may wish to participate in future engagement activity. Status of Previously Published Information Except for the change in commissioning approach described above, all information previously published regarding the proposed service model, service objectives, scope, outcomes, and anticipated contract arrangements should be considered unchanged at this stage. The Council continues to envisage an Integrated 0-19 Public Health Nursing Service, including services up to age 25 for eligible children and young people with SEND, delivering the Healthy Child Programme through an integrated health visiting and school nursing model. Any future procurement documentation will confirm the final specification and commissioning requirements. Proposed Contract Arrangements The Council's current planning assumptions remain: • Contract commencement date: 1 April 2028 • Initial contract term: 3 years • Extension option 1: 2 years • Extension option 2: 2 years • Maximum contract duration: 7 years • Estimated total contract value (including extensions): £22 million These figures are indicative only and may be refined prior to any future procurement process. ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** planning - **CPV codes:** 85323000 - **Delivery regions:** UKJ - **Delivery countries in notice:** GB - **Contract Period:** 01/04/2028 to 31/03/2031 - **Renewal published:** yes ## Provenance and Official Sources - **Official Notice:** [Find a Tender notice](/out?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.find-tender.service.gov.uk%2FNotice%2F100358-2026) - **Last Source Update:** 2026-10-23T10:23:18.000Z - **This document generated:** 2026-10-25T08:17:31.953Z - **Machine API:** https://tenderline.uk/api/public/tenders/ocds-h6vhtk-078eb6
