The brief

We would like to bring to your attention an exciting new opportunity to develop a specialised smoking cessation service within Croydon.

Smoking is the single largest preventable cause of multiple health inequalities, particularly relevant in Croydon.

Smoking prevalence is higher in certain priority group populations: Homeless Alcohol and drug misuse Severe mental illness These priority group populations are underserved, with studies finding that rather than being less motivated to quit smoking, individuals in these populations find it more difficult and require more support.

These groups are excluded from Croydon's current smoking cessation provision delivered via the Live Well service.

The current evidence base, NICE guidelines and learning from existing tobacco dependency services treating people with complex needs shows that to best support the needs of these populations, a specialist service should be commissioned The council is looking to commission a provider to deliver a smoking cessation service for underserved priority groups: Severe Mental Illness, Homeless, Substance Misuse.

The service would be required to be located in Croydon, as well providing community outreach services within the borough.
