The NHS North East Essex Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) has awarded a contract extension titled "Community Lymphoedema - North East Essex" to Anglian Community Enterprise (ACE) for the provision of Community Lymphoedema Services. This contract extension is effective from 1st April 2021 to 30th June 2021, with a total value of £62,775.
