IntroductionPreconception care can significantly improve maternal and infant outcomes, and thus optimise intergenerational health. The aims of this scoping review are to (1) provide an up-to-date summary of preconception health and care strategies, policies, guidelines, frameworks and recommendations across the UK and Ireland and (2) explore preconception health and care services and interventions in Northern Ireland as a case study.Methods and analysisThis scoping review of grey literature will be conducted as per the Scoping Review Methods Manual by the Joanna Briggs Institute and the Arksey-O’Malley framework for scoping studies, and reported in line with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews. Searches were conducted on Google Advanced Search, OpenAire, NICE, ProQuest and relevant public health websites in May 2022. Only results published, reviewed or updated between January 2011 and the time of the searches (May 2022) were considered for inclusion. In addition, searches on interventions and services provided in Northern Ireland will be supplemented by consultations and audits with key stakeholders to validate findings, identify other potentially eligible resources and ensure breadth of coverage. Data will be extracted into Excel and coded using NVivo, and ≥10% of the data will be double-coded. A narrative approach with content analysis highlighting key themes and concepts will be used to report findings.Throughout the research cycle, members of the wider public will be involved and engaged with to provide feedback.Ethics and disseminationEthical approval is not required as analyses will be conducted on data available in the public domain. Findings will be shared with relevant stakeholders with the aim to inform future research, practice and decision-making, and disseminated through a peer-reviewed publication, conference presentations and infographics. Dissemination plans will be informed by the ‘Healthy Reproductive Years’ patient and public involvement and engagement advisory panel.
