The contract, titled "CEREDIGION BEREAVEMENT SERVICE," falls under the health services category and is set in the region of Ceredigion, UK.

Success in this procurement could significantly bolster a company's portfolio in the health services industry.

Notice Description

Hywel Dda University Health Board (HDUHB) have an opportunity to expand their provisions of Bereavement Services for the North and South Ceredigion Cluster Areas and are looking to commission a suitable provider to undertake this work for the County's population.
