Tender description

The service offers free stop smoking support to citizens of City of York Council, though an evidence-based behaviour change programme. As part of the programme of support, citizens are also provided with Nicotine Replacement Therapy [NRT] or e-cigarettes to support their quit attempt. A regular supply of NRT is a key element to a successful quit programme. By supplying NRT directly this provides faster access to for individuals, capitalising on their motivation to quit. As such, we are seeking a supplier who can provide a range of NRT types to the main local authority address, for the service to then distribute to service users.
