The aim is to encourage long term sustainability and resilience. ## CPV classification Other community, social and personal services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/5c446c5b-6aae-4fa8-af04-6f5ea0a34449) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
