The following are examples of the type of services Torbay Council are considering to be included in the opportunity: specialist stop smoking and weight management services (tier 2), physical activity advice and interventions, behaviour change centred training such as MECC (Making Every Contact Count)/Connect 5, wraparound brief advice and referral regarding other areas of health behaviour such as emotional health and wellbeing, substance misuse and oral health.

This is the second expression of interest (EoI) opportunity being sought in relation to the provision of these services, following an initial expression of interest opportunity held in April 2021.
