Following the communication in the September newsletter regarding the new NHS Health Checks contract with Leicester City Council. The council has informed us that they have now completed their internal governance approval process for this service, and are looking to issue the documents onto the Proactis portal on Friday 21st November 2025.
Unfortunately, there have been some delays with this programme, but once the documents have been published the City Council representatives will begin holding the support sessions, along with support to help practices register onto the Proactis portal, where practices will be able to express interest in the NHS Health Checks service and download the documents for completion.
Attached is copy of the revised slides for your information as slides 13, 14, 15 and 16 have been updated.
