NHS Devon sought to recommission bespoke support for those of all ages bereaved or affected by/ exposed to suicide.

Planned review work during the previous contract period for this service had not been completed due to priority re-allocation of resources. It was previously awarded following a competitive procurement process where only one bidder expressed an interest.

As a result Pete's Dragons have been directly awarded a further contract of 12 months from 01/04/2024 to 31/03/2025 to enable review work to be completed. An optional 12 month extension to 31/3/2026 is included to ensure a compliant procurement can be undertaken prior to next contract award, should a full competitive approach be required.

Delivery: South West

Extensions: A 12 month extension option is included
