The Department of Health and Social Care has successfully awarded a contract for the supply of Personal Protective Equipment specifically for healthcare workers, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The awarded contract, valued at £8,424,000, was awarded to The Royal Mint Ltd for the provision of face visors.
