The contract process has been completed with Granville Lodge Care Home, situated in Bristol, as the awarded supplier.

The contract commenced on 17th September 2025 and is scheduled to conclude on 31st March 2030, with a gross value of £234,347. The procurement targeted the health and social work services sector and operates within the UKK11 region, specifically covering Bristol, UK.

This procurement presents robust opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social work services, especially those capable of handling large-scale contracts.
