Ealing Council is re-tendering a major health contract after negotiations with the current provider failed over pricing.

Ealing Council decided in November 2025 to re-tender its £7.15 million Healthy Child Programme contract, which covers health visiting and school nursing services. This decision by the council's Cabinet followed unsuccessful negotiations with the current provider, Central London Community Health NHS Trust, because the requested pricing exceeded available financial resources.

The council aims to have a new contract in place within 12 months and needs to expedite the procurement process. This is to avoid a service gap after October 2025 for the 0-19 Healthy Child Programme.
