CCS are a forward-thinking and innovative NHS trust seeking a similarly innovative and enthusiastic supplier partner to collaboratively deliver high quality pharmacy services to patients across Cambridgeshire as well as Norfolk, Suffolk, Bedfordshire and Milton Keynes for some services.

Milton Keynes)• Lot 3 - Provision of non-ART stock and over-labelled packs, and HIV PrEP and PEP across CCS footprint• Lot 4 - Provision of services in Lots 2 and 3 across CCST footprint• Lot 5 - Provision of services in Lots 1, 2 and 3 across CCST footprintThe minimum initial fixed term contract duration shall be 3 years with an optional 2 x 12 month extension period.
