•	Lot 1: Core Services (including Stop Smoking Support, STI screening and C-card - Condoms)
•	Lot 2: Specialist Services (including, but not limited to; Emergency Hormonal Contraception, Needle Exchange and Supervised Consumption) 
These Pharmacy-based services will enable equitable access for those residents that are less likely to travel to specialist centres or use the internet for key public health services. The services will help to achieve a number of the 50 Steps within the Health & Wellbeing Strategy, and contracts for small local businesses are consistent with the Community Wealth Building strategy (CWB).  The successful Provider(s) will be responsible for providing this service and liaising closely with the Contract Manager and/or Commissioner identified by the Authority
Lot 2 is segmented into the below sub-lots:
2a	Emergency Hormonal Contraception (EHC)
2b	Needle exchange, naloxone provision and Supervised Consumption

During the lifetime of the PDPS, Commissioners - in consultation with providers and North East London Pharmaceutical Committee (NEL LPC) - may seek to expand the scope of Core and Specialist Services in response to resident need, public health policy or legislative change. This may require a contract variation
